About the book
About The Modern Pharaoh: an Ellis Parker Adventure Thriller
The black market in antiquities is thriving. Stolen artifacts slip into the United States every year, each one carrying buried secrets, power, or the kind of history people kill for. Behind velvet ropes and inside glass cases, a quiet crime wave spreads through museums, galleries, and private collections. Built to stop this shadow trade, the Antiquities Trafficking Task Force has one mission: shut it down. No politics. No compromises. Only results. Ellis Parker is the A.T.T.F.’s wildcard. A child of the seventies with a mind that moves sideways, he’s still figuring out how to navigate a modern world that moves too fast and asks too many questions. But when a seemingly harmless Egyptian relic disappears from a Manhattan District Attorney’s Office evidence locker, a simple follow-up leads to ancient secrets, powerful enemies, and a conspiracy that could rewrite history. The past bites back, and Ellis is about to be caught in its jaws. Secrets, legacy, and peril converge in The Modern Pharaoh, book one of the Ellis Parker series, revealing the fragile line between destiny and desire, power and ruin, and leaving readers questioning what is real and what is written in history’s shadow.
