Papyrus, a young orphan, is the friend of royal princess Theti-Cheri. In an Egypt full of gods and magic, he has his hands full protecting Pharaoh's daughter! The 7th volume of a series that skilfully mixes history and mythology.

Papyrus and his friend Imhotep head off for Sakkarah, where a statue must be erected to give praise to the Pharaoh. While navigating the Nile, they save an old man threatened by a crocodile. In Sakkarah, the Pharaoh's life is threatened too: He has been poisoned. If he dies, the future will be very bleak. So our young heroes have the idea of letting the old man they saved play the role of Pharaoh, seeing as the two men look very much alike. But the deception may not last for long, and Papyrus has to find an antidote for the Pharaoh as quickly as he can! This series tells the story of a young fisherman, Papyrus, and Princess Theti-Cheri, daughter of Pharaoh Merenptha, in a very precise reconstruction of old Egypt (the XIXth dynasty).
