A mysterious attack on Margaret Trelawneyâs father brings young lawyer Malcolm Ross into the Egyptologistâs bizarre home, and the couple soon find they are battling ancient forces greater than they previously could have imagined. The Egyptian queen Tera has been awoken, and is coming to take what she believes to be hers â whatever the cost to the Trelawney family. Set in London and Cornwall, and written at a time when a fascination with the East pervaded Victorian England, The Jewel of Seven Stars reflected the perceived contrast between the Orientâs savagery and moral degradation, and its exotic beauty and opulence.
