In the sun-drenched island of Crete, an English writer’s hospital stay takes an unexpected turn. A mysterious roommate, their conversations a captivating blend of art, archaeology, reincarnation, and the rigid structures of the English class system, vanishes without a trace. Or so it seems. Upon returning home, the writer uncovers a journal and a worn tarot deck tucked away in his luggage: undeniable proof of his enigmatic encounter. Penned in 1823 by a Paduan named Giovanni Battista Belzoni, the journal reveals a fascinating life. A strongman who captivated British music hall crowds as ’The Patagonian Samson,’ Belzoni also made his mark as a daring procurer of Egyptian artifacts for the British Museum. But within the journal’s pages lies a chilling account - a terrifying confrontation with Satan himself within the depths of the Great Pyramid of Cheops.
