A late family friend has hidden the document on a trip to Egype decades earlier and left clues to its location only visible in the night sky of 1825. As they begin to unravel the mystery, the body of a Forth family member turns up on the doorstep of Charles' manor.

William's escape leaves him stranded in the Sahara far behind teh efforts of the Forth's to recover the property title. FAcing the choice of rescuing Charles or returning home to prevent his family's eviction before the Writ becomes law, William gets more than he bargained for when he uncovers a Forth secret that may bring down the Kindgom of Greece as time draws near for the signing of the Treaty of London.
