Mira's kitchen has a mouse problem - and an old scarab amulet pulls her into a much bigger one. In a grain store at Lahun in ancient Egypt, on the night before the bins are sealed, Mira and her new friend Meryt must free a cat trapped in a full bin, give a cobra a safe road out along the mice's own tunnels, and find every hole before sunrise. A warm, illustrated adventure about careful thinking, teamwork and everyday life in ancient Egypt.
