The Ape Who Guards the Balance

This is an okay book written by Elizabeth Peters. In 1906 the Emerson family is staying in England, when Amelia and her son decide to attend a protest to allow women to vote. Upon arriving in Egpyt, Ramses buys a papyrus from a questionable source and it turns about to be the Book of the Dead. It also appears that someone is trying to attack Amelia.

This is the 10th book the series. The title refers to the Egpytian God Thoth. In 1995, Kent Weeks discovered an extensive tomb in the Valley of the Kings built for the children of Ramesses II.
