Bookroo's summary

Cousins Jeff and Debbie are drawn to an old mansion by a $10,000 reward for a missing mummy. As a blizzard traps them inside, they uncover a hidden mummy and encounter Anubis, a creature from ancient Egypt. With nightfall, an evil spirit awakens, threatening their survival. Can they escape the mansion's sinister grip before dawn, or will the ancient curse claim new victims? The storm outside is nothing compared to the danger within.

From the publisher

A $10,000 reward for a missing mummy lures cousins Jeff and Debbie into an old mansion. But a raging snow storm forces them to spend the night – and an evil ancient spirit might not let them see the dawn.
