Novelist Roger D. Grubbs releases “Treasures of the Nile”

Feb. 20, 2011 - PRLog -- Within the borders of Egypt, especially along the Nile, are many ancient treasures.  Thousands of years have passed since the days of Ramesses the Great, yet his legacy lives on, along with the magnificent structures he built.  But not all the past has been revealed.  There are many secrets and, yes, ancient curses that await the brave souls who would choose to indulge in the quest for answers.  

With seven of Dr. Andrew Rogers’ most prized protégés having now graduated, these newly inducted doctors of archeology are eager to make their mark in the world by uncovering a 3,250-year-old mummy.  By following in the footsteps of their professors, these seven beautiful young ladies have already become renowned archeologists.  Now Dr. Julie Freeman is leading an expedition and has asked Dr. Rogers, along with his assistant Dr. Kathleen McGregor, to accompany them.  

Working with Dr. McGregor, Julie has uncovered a mystery that has been kept secret since the days of Ramesses the Great.  But, before the expedition could be completed, Dr. McGregor is called upon to retrieve the body of Lieutenant William Grey of the United States Marines.  Presumed to have been murdered by ninja warriors in the jungles of Colombia, the Lieutenant’s body is not being returned to his wife, Sophia, who needs closure.  

The President’s hands are tied, and no military forces representing the United States are allowed into Colombia until a new treaty is signed.  Already escorting the girls to Egypt, Andy is unaware of the problem.  Not having any time to waste, Kat took on the project of finding the Lieutenant’s body all alone.  

Once Andy received word of their friend’s death, he took off for Colombia, realizing he would now have to rescue his beloved companion, Kat.  While there, Andy is befriended by a small, white-faced monkey who later became his comrade.  These two attempt a daring rescue, but the odds are squarely stacked against them.  

Meanwhile, Julie and her six companions find the treasures of Egypt in a different form than they had expected.  But, in the process they have awakened a mysterious spirit.  Now they must find a way to send it back.  

“Treasures of the Nile” is a story of friendship, love, humor, and companionship.  But, in the end, help comes from a source least expected.
