The Blue Nile Adventure
Attempted murder, mayhem, and magic while sailing
down the Nile to Upper Egypt on a packaged cruise aboard the Queen
Nuit.
That is not how the trip had been advertised: The brochure read
Fun!
Romance! Unravel the deep secrets of the pyramids and other
ancient mysteries! Yes, it was all that, but the travel literature
made no mention of terrorists and thieves or the recently unearthed
golden statue of Thoth casting its sorcery on my family.
When did the mystery begin? Did it start with the encounter
with archaeologist Dr. Barry Short on the Giza Plateau? Or was it
triggered by our introduction to former Nazi Hans Bueller, who
tricked Madeleine into smuggling a little package to Upper Egypt? Or
did the mystery begin in Cairo when Natalie coincidently met up with
former boyfriend Stuart, who unbeknownst to her had gone undercover
and was on assignment? Perhaps the magic began all the way back in
Ohio when the fortunate fortune cookie was brought to our table
along with our dinner check.
The universe began to speak at the Temple of Amun in Abu
Simbel when at the mid-winter sunrise a new message was penned in
hieroglyphics. What does it mean? What have we learned? What do we
know? Will I ever really understand all that we were swept up in?
