Death Shall Come

Ishmael Jones is employed by a mysterious organization to search out secrets, investigate mysteries and shine a light in dark places. If at times Ishmael seems otherworldly, that’ s because he is. He’ s a “ superpowered alien in human skin” (Kirkus) with his own secrets.

In the fourth book, Ishmael and his partner Penny are hired to investigate the provenance of Cleopatra’ s alleged sarcophagus, exhibited in a private collection at Caravan House. Their investigation quickly turns deadly when the sarcophagus is found open with no mummy and a brutally murdered corpse nearby. Naturally, whispers of deadly curses abound. But Ishmael knows the killer is all too real— but who? A member of the Cardavan family? A thief willing to kill for treasure? Or something far more dangerous? Something that can be heard walking in the darkest corridors of Cardavan House, searching for its next victim… ?
