In this fast paced sequel to The Everything Box-the second entry in New York Times bestselling author Richard Kadrey´s comedic supernatural series-chaos ensues when Coop and the team at DOPS steal a not-quite-dead and very lovesick ancient Egyptian mummy wielding some terrifying magic.

Coop, a master thief sort of gone legit, saved the world from an ancient doomsday device-heroism that earned him a gig working for the Department of Peculiar Science, a fearsome top secret government agency that polices the odd and strange. Now Woolrich, Coop´s boss at the DOPS, has Coop breaking into a traveling antiquities show to steal a sarcophagus containing the mummy of a powerful Egyptian wizard named Harkhuf. With the help of his pals Morty, Giselle, and a professor that´s half-cat, half-robotic octopus, Coop pulls off the heist without a hitch.

It´s not Coop´s fault that when DOPS opened the sarcophagus they didn´t find the mummy they were expecting. Well, it was the right mummy, but it wasn´t exactly dead-and now it´s escaped, using a type of magic the organization hasn´t encountered before. Being a boss, Woolrich blames his underling for the screw up and wants Coop to find the missing Harkhuf and make it right, pronto.

Digging into Harkhuf´s history, Coop thinks the mummy is hunting for an ancient magical manuscript that will help him bring his old lover back to life.

Which wouldn´t be so bad if she wasn´t a warrior sorceress hell-bent on conquering the world with her undead armies.

Coop would very much like to run from the oncoming chaos. It´s one thing to steal a mummy, but another to have to deal with head-hunting bureaucrats, down-on-their luck fortune tellers, undead mailroom clerks, and a rather unimpressed elephant. Unfortunately, there´s nowhere to run. If he wants the madness to stop, he´s going to have to suck it up and play hero one more time. But if Coop manages to save the world AGAIN, he´s definitely going to want a lot of answers. And a raise.
