Walter Rothschild is an American Egyptologist living in London and charged by
the British Museum with the task of unlocking the riddle of the Stela of Paser,
a centuries-old funerary stone. In the final hours of his quest, with six days
left before his contract is up with the British Museum, Walter meets a young
woman who expresses an interest in him and his work. That night, he invites
her back to the museum; the next morning, she bids him a speedy farewell, and
secretly makes off with a precious antiquity. When Walter discovers the theft,
it becomes clear that outside forces have designs on his research, and his
entire career - and life - is on the line.
The Third Translation is a highly charged, engrossing tale that introduces Matt
Bondurant as an important new voice in modern American fiction
