Since their mother's death, Carter and Sadie have barely seen each other. Sadie has lived in London with her grandparents, while her brother has traveled the world with their father, the brilliant Egyptologist Julius Kane. One night, Dr. Kane brings the two siblings together for an "experiment" at the British Museum, where he hopes to make amends with his family. But instead, he unleashes the Egyptian god Seth, who makes him disappear and forces the children to flee. Soon, Sadie and Carter discover that the Egyptian gods are awakening, and that the cruelest of them all, Seth, is after the Kanes. To stop him, the siblings embark on a journey around the globe, a quest that will bring them closer to the truth about their family and the ties they have to a secret order that has existed since the time of the pharaohs.
