Of Curses and Kings
Hiram Kane has retired from a life of international exploration, sick of the tragedies that stalk him across the globe. When he's offered the job of transporting one of the world's most iconic artefacts back to its rightful home, working for the British Museum's ground-breaking Artefact Repatriation Committee, it seems the perfect route into a simpler life.
But, when a mysterious organisation with devastating plans entangles with his, things once more plunge into chaos.
Deep within the labyrinthine tombs and temples of long-dead pharaohs, Kane will face the most difficult decision of his life.
Will his blood once again stain ancient stone, or will his heart find what it most desires
Of Curses and Kings is the rip-roaring fifth installment of the internationally bestselling Hiram Kane action thriller series, and will appeal to fans of Clive Cussler, Nick Thacker, Ernest Dempsey, and Russell Blake.

About the Author
Englishman Steven Moore grew up by the seaside, thus his first true joy was the great outdoors. His innate love of travel and a degree in anthropology, archaeology, and art history, help inform his fiction writing. Steven also loves painting, photography, and both playing and watching sport.The travel bug bit the now perpetual nomad early, and to date Steven has lived and worked on five continents, and visited almost seventy countries. Steven combines an age-old writing adage; Write what you know, with his own mantra; Write where you know, and sets most of his novels in places in which he has either lived or spent an extended period of time.When not on the road, Steven divides his time between Norwich, UK, and Tacoma, USA, which he shares with his rescue cats Ernest Hemingway and F Scott Fitzgerald (Ernie and Fitz), and his rescue puppy, Charles Dickens. Oh yes, and his beautiful travel writer wife, Leslie.A lifelong love of food, wine, and beer, have demanded a new-found love of yoga and hiking in order to fend off the imminent arrival of middle age.You can find more of Steven's books here: stevenmooreauthor.com
