Stephen Campbell is a young Scottish art historian, who travels to Egypt, retracing his great-grandfather?s footsteps in the East. With romantic notions he seeks to relive the magic he sees in his ancestor?s Orientalist paintings. Once in Cairo, he is swept by the energy of the city, and falls in love with beautiful Mira, an ambitious tourist guide. Little does Stephen know that his Egyptian goddess is involved in an illegal excavation of ancient Egyptian tombs. Entangled in a web of crime, and love, Stephen is trapped, questions the very essence of love, and is forced to make the ultimate sacrifice.
