The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy E-BOOK

In the third adventure of Robert Arthur's classic mystery series, Jupiter, Pete, and Bob encounter Ra-Orkon, the mummy of an Egyptian prince dead for three thousand years. But sometimes the dead don't rest easily, and an Abyssinian cat named Sphinx suggests that more is at stake than at first appears.

As it turns out, Ra-Orkon has things to say, and the Three Investigators, along with their new friend Hamid - the son of a Libyan rug merchant - have to answer some puzzling questions, posed by the notable archaeologist Professor Yarborough. How can a mummy speak? What is he trying to say? And can the boys discover his secret before they and others fall victim to the mummy's ghastly curse?

By turns spooky, bewildering, and thrilling, The Mystery of the Whispering Mummy promises to please not only the existing fan base of The Three Investigators series but a whole new generation of readers who will find in its pages three very different boys whose imagination, courage, and intelligence can remind us that curiosity, perseverance, and rational inquiry are just as vital as friendship and cooperation.

At the end of each Three Investigators book published by Hollow Tree Press are notes written by Robert Arthur's daughter and son-in-law, exploring three subjects connected to the story - in this case, Archaeologists, Mummies, and Ventriloquism - and young readers may want to use these notes as guidelines for further investigation. After all, the motto of The Three Investigators is "We Investigate Anything," and their trademark is "???" - three question marks, taken together.

On the 60th anniversary of the creation of The Three Investigators series, the first-ever English-language e-book editions of Robert Arthur's novels, as well as the first new English-language print editions in over twenty-five years, stand ready to delight a whole new audience. Be sure to seek out all ten titles!
