While on an excavating trip, he comes across a lost tomb-and discovers the resting place of Ma-Mee, the very queen that so captivated him in London.The Blue Curtains: John Peritt-nicknamed 'Bottles'-lost his true love to another man while serving in South Africa. Now he is back in England and discovers that his lost love has become a widow.

But that night, before the wedding, his first wife makes him a ghostly gift.Barbara Who Came Back: Barbara and Anthony fall in love, marry and eventually have a son-a son who is as destructive and cruel as they are kind and loving.
