Novel, 448 pages, hardcover, German original version

Peter and Patrick, the protagonists of "Projekt: Babylon", are on the trails of a new mystery, one which will lead them to Cairo, Rhodes and deep beneath the Egyptian desert. What’s behind the murder in 1930 and what’s about the heretic pharaoh Akhenaten? How do the All-Seeing Eye, the Tabula Smaragdina and the secret society “Thot Wehem Ankh” tie together?

2007, Limes Verlag, München

 

This is the follow-up novel to "Projekt Babylon". Peter and Patrick may have solved some mysteries, but this has been nothing more than a peek behind the scenes of a much larger mystery which makes the middle ages seem rather unimpressive. Although both novels were always planned as a suite, they can both be read seperately. Of course, it's all the more intriguing when you meet old friends from southern France in Cairo ...
