In the ruins of the ancient city of Ephesus in Turkey, an astonishing relic has been unearthed!

What connection to the bygone goddess Artemis does this relic hold? What extraordinary powers could be unleashed it it were to fall into the wrong, evil and manicured hands?

Cairo Jim -- that well-known archaeologist and little-known poet -- and his friends Doris the macaw and Brenda the Wonder Camel find themselves faced with the greatest threat to Nature itself! Another tale from the master of archaeological humour and suspense, Geoffrey McSkimming!

"If Mr. McSkimming's tongue were more firmly embedded in his cheek he'd risk permanent speech impediment." -- Australian Book Review

"When you tire of stories about the places and people you know, try the witty word play and over-the-top adventure of Cairo Jim for an outrageous tonic." -- The Age
