1. the house of the morning sun
Kaylee and Luke have to follow their
parents to a distant mountain village. The lord of the local castle has invited
them to work on his Egyptological collection. So it is
goodbye to friends and summer fun, hello to boring summer. Upon
arrival, they learn the castle lord isn’t interested in their parents at all. It is
Kaylee and Luke he wants – to search for seven ancient shabtis, little
servant statuettes from ancient Egypt. According to legend, they were brought
to the valley by a pharaoh’s daughter fleeing from ancient Egypt. The shabtis
hold an unbelievable power – something people have been searching for thousands
of years. Something they are willing to do anything for to find – even kill... The castle
lord makes it clear that if Luke and Kaylee don’t find the shabtis, their
families will suffer. And the first one to go will be Kaylee’s little sister
Ellie. The castle is surrounded by a lake – and Ellie cannot swim. Luke and
Kaylee begin their desperate search with only an ancient Egyptian hieroglyph as
a clue. The clock is ticking and their families have no idea they are in
danger. Will they find the first shabti in time? Is the legend of the pharaoh’s
daughter true? Who is the ghost haunting the castle? The House
of the Morning Sun is the first book in the YA series ‘The Seven Shabtis’. If
