Jack Madden and his team of relic hunters must fight Nile crocs, deadly cobras and swarms of flesh-eating scarabs to uncover the secret burial chamber of an ancient pharaoh laid to rest deep within the Red Pyramid. Using scraps of a papyrus that claims King Sneferu was entombed with a prized possession – a gold scepter tipped with the polished remains of a meteorite that hit Africa two billion years ago – the motley crew of adventurers must uncover lost chambers and avoid the deadly traps hidden throughout the 4,000-year-old monument to the dead king.
