Long Road to Kairos: Part One

The mummy of a man who's been hanged, stabbed and drowned in a peat bog in northern England turns Jocelyn Durant's comfortable world upside down when her friend, Dr. Graham Thackeray invites her to his Oxford lab to view it. Crying out, "Otumwey! Otumwey, my husband...my husband," she faints, leaving everyone else present to wonder what connection she might have to the three hundred year old imposter. After a DNA analysis is completed it's revealed that she has everything in common with the mysterious man from Urubaland, but how? A handsome stranger, a secret society, a powerful financier and a famous archeologist all want the mummy, but only Jocelyn, with the aid of her friends, can unravel the meaning of the priceless treasure the mummy secretly carried to his untimely death. A long forgotten curse and a star crossed romance serve to complicate matters as the intriguing mystery travels through time as effortlessly as it crosses the globe from present day England, to eighteenth century France, to tribal Urubaland and the Caribbean. Graham and Jocelyn are the best of friends and perhaps a good deal more, but the mystery of the Bog Man quickly tests their loyalties, could any relationship survive the temptations the treasure of the mummy presents?
