Disappearing artifacts, jealous colleagues, and dead bodies--who says a museum curator's job is easy? Archaeologist and curator Lisa Donahue transports an Egyptian mummy to a Boston hospital for an X-ray. When she returns the artifact to her museum, Lisa finds the body of a colleague in the mummy's vacated case. The two-thousand-year-old mummy contains an enigmatic clue that will help Lisa solve the murder and keep her job. But she must move fast--before someone turns her into a permanent exhibit. "Highly authentic, written by an archaeologist, Bound for Eternity is a great read. The museum setting was both eerie and fascinating. I hope to see Lisa Donahue in many books to come."--Barbara D'Amato, author of Other Eyes Fourth Edition (2015), edited, with new cover.

From the Author:
Bound for Eternity is based upon a true story: the scientific investigation of an Egyptian mummy at the University of Illinois. The setting was the original attic home of the World Heritage Museum where I worked as a curator for nearly four years.The first edition of this book (gold and white cover, 2005), was poorly edited.
The edition with the blue cover is the latest (2015) edition of "Bound" with most of the typos removed.
