Gentleman of Misfortune (Unabridged‪)‬

Mummies.... Murder.... Vengeance.


New York, 1833.


Gentleman swindler Lyman Moreau is used to knowing what he wants. But when he discovers an opportunity to steal a shipment of Egyptian mummies and recruits the help of a back-market antiquities dealer, a crooked customs agent, and the woman both men love, he gets more than he bargained for.


With mummies in tow, Moreau sets out on a wild journey, fleeing accusations of murder, threats of vengeance, and the danger of forbidden love. Displaying his odd collection in any museum, Masonic Hall, and canal-side tavern that will have him along the way, Moreau may yet makes his fortune. But he might just lose his heart. Or worse.
