Comedy Horror - Urban Fantasy - Supernatural SatireWhen a priceless mummy wakes up in the basement of a prestigious museum, assistant curator Mary Johnson has a problem. Actually, she has several. She is already drowning in debt, one suspicious art audit away from prison, and desperately trying to keep anyone from discovering that the museum's multimillion-dollar Renaissance masterpiece is a forgery she painted herself.
Then the mummy starts talking. Sovereign William Martinez claims to be an ancient Egyptian ruler. Mary quickly discovers he is actually an eighteenth-century con artist with terrible taste, a magnificent ego, and a demonic contract that should have stayed buried. Unfortunately, the museum's board has plans for him. The trustees are secretly exploiting the museum's priceless collection, engineering insurance disasters, and preparing to harvest the supernatural power bound to William's undead body.
Their only mistake is assuming the museum staff will cooperate. Now Mary has to work with a mummified fraudster, a brutally practical union security guard, an exhausted intern, and a demon with surprisingly high standards to stop a supernatural corporate takeover. There is just one problem:Mary's best weapon may be the fake Renaissance painting she was trying desperately to hide. Sharp, irreverent, and wildly absurd, Is The Mummy A Tax Write-Off? is a fast-paced blend of workplace comedy, urban fantasy, supernatural horror, museum satire, and dark humor-perfect for readers who enjoy eccentric monsters, dysfunctional workplaces, clever banter, and supernatural chaos with a bureaucratic twist.
