NEW. Third in a children's Egypt fantasy adventure trilogy that sold thousands in the USA

Third in a much-loved children's Egypt series of fantasy adventures - scariest yet. New in Kindle edition.

Young readers first met my young story threesome - computer game crazy Josh, his sister Amy and their mysterious little cousin Harry, a long time ago (years before Harry Potter's threesome, in fact).

Here were the first two books, THE MUMMY'S REVENGE ..is deadly and Who knows the secret of... THE MUMMY'S TOMB published by Scholastic, USA.





Young readers - and schools - loved them and they sold many, many thousand of copies in the USA.

Now for the first time in USA, here is the third in the children's Egypt fantasy action adventure trilogy available in an Amazon Kindle edition.

THE MUMMY'S TRAP... waits for Josh, Amy & Cousin Harry. 

It's their scariest adventure ever.

The cubic man, with head, feet and hands protruding, squatted on a base with his knees raised and arms folded across them under a cloak to form a crushing volume in stone.
In the turmoil, the passage trembled and so did Anson.
The wigged and bearded face on top of the block wore a smile that belied the missile’s crushing intent as the statue shuddered over the floor. Hieroglyphs on the front of the block leapt into Anson’s vision like an execration hurled at him, a spell to obliterate an intruder...
