[edit] Summary
Amid rumors of a potential threat to a travelling exhibition of Golden Pharaohs on loan from Levant, Oscar assigns Steve Austin to escort the historic art treasures on their return to their home country. Steve quickly discovers the "Golden Pharaoh" statue has been replaced by a fake and has 48 hours to find the original before it is to be examined by a visiting Egyptologist. While conducting surveillance of the Embassy of the Colonial Republic of Levant, Steve spies a former flame Trish Hollander leaving the Embassy in a chauffer driven car. Later that night he visits Trish, also a chronic gambler, and learns she is engaged to marry the Vice Consul, Gustav Tokar. He offers to pay her gambling debts if she will help him gain entrance to the embassy, and while Trish agrees, the tricky beauty has plans of her own.
