I Found Cleopatra

A tale of romance and mystery, of the almost incredible fate that befell a young American who sought the tomb of Cleopatra, the famous Egyptian Queen.

Brian O’Hara, young two-fisted American lawyer, has inherited the ancient Egyptian scroll which tells that the body of the great Queen Cleopatra lies in the heart of a mountain in the innermost part of the Sahara Desert — “not dead, but sleeping.”

I Found Cleopatra by Thomas P. Kelley (1905-1982), was first published in Weird Tales as a four-part serial, (Nov. 1938 through Feb. 1939).
