Blossom Culp has her hands full, keeping her friend Alexander out of the clutches of arch-rival Lottie, saving the job of the new suffragette school teacher and getting her Ancient Egypt grave robbery project done. She’s not very happy when the ghost of an Egyptian princess appears to her and demands to be restored to her tomb. It’s Illinois, after all, so getting to Egypt might be challenging. But the ghost is a princess, who expects to be obeyed, so Blossom and Alexander figure out how to help her and save the day.
