In Ancient Egypt, Pharaoh Runihura is seeking ancient relics which will give him powers beyond the gods. Two unlikely heroes stand in his way. A child born into poverty named Azizi Keket is orphaned at the age of five and raises himself in the alleys of Iunu. Amsi Al-Sakhir is a rich boy destined to take over a vast estate. The two boys become friends and join forces against the pharaoh and his evil plans. Can Azizi and Amsi overcome the barriers of class and social strife to battle a manical madman bent on destruction?

Pharaoh Runihura is back in this sequel to "The Rise of Sekhmet." Amsi discovers the body of a Priestess of Isis in the desert with a defaced Buckle of Isis. Who is she and where did she come from? Was she delivering a relic of Isis to Runihura? Can Azizi and Amsi stop the pharaoh from obtaining another holy relic while curing the plague? Amsi and Azizi's friendship faces the ultimate test when Amsi must choose to sacrifice himself to save the King of Thieves.
