Bookroo's summary

Cass and her friends, Max-Ernest and Yo-Yoji, face a dangerous mystery after a class trip mishap at a museum. Accused of vandalism, they must clear their names and uncover a hidden secret. Their journey takes them to a realm of pyramids, tombs, and the walking dead. As they delve deeper, the stakes rise, threatening not just their lives but the very secrets they seek. Will they unravel the truth before it's too late, or will the lurking dangers consume them?

From the publisher

The finale to the New York Times bestselling Secret Series! I always feared this day would come. A secret is meant to stay secret, after all. And now we’ve come to this: the fifth and final (I swear!) book in my saga of secrets. A class trip to the local natural history museum turns dangerous, or perhaps deadly–and I don’t mean in the bored-to-death way–when Cass accidentally breaks a finger off a priceless mummy. Forced to atone for this crime of vandalism, Cass and her friends Max-Ernest and Yo-Yoji go to work for the mummy exhibit’s curator, only to be blamed when tragedy strikes. To clear their names–and, they hope, to discover the Secret–the trio must travel deep into a land of majestic pyramids, dusty tombs, mysterious hieroglyphs, and the walking dead. Egypt? Or somewhere much stranger . . . In the midst of it all, the Secret still lurks. You’re out there, reading and talking about it, and now my life–and chocolate supply–is in the greatest danger yet. So please, with a cherry on top, I’m begging you: you have to stop this!
