The Merk o the Pharaoh
A chance encounter with an eccentric Egyptologist takes Tintin and his faithful dog, Tarrie, on an adventure in search of the lost tomb of Pharaoh Kih-Oskh. But the king’s resting place contains a secret much darker than mummies and desert sand. By following a strange clue, Tintin and Tarrie fall headlong into the clutches of a gang of drug smugglers, as they unwittingly find themselves in vicious conflict with a major international criminal.
