When Ra-Orkon, a 3,000-year-old mummy, begins to whisper strange words in an ancient Egyptian tongue,
the Three Investigators are determined to find out the facts: Why is he speaking? What is he saying ?
And how is the horrible curse of Ra-Orkon about to be fulfilled ?
A friend of Alfred Hitchcock's has a mummy from Egypt that unexplainably begins to whisper to him in
an unknown language. The boys are contacted to solve the mystery of how and why the mummy whispers.
