The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the journey of a group of adventurers who seek to transport an ancient Egyptian obelisk, known as Cleopatra's Needle, from Egypt to New York City. The main character, John Paxton, is a wealthy businessman who finances the expedition and becomes embroiled in a dangerous plot involving a secret society, a stolen artifact, and a race against time to prevent a catastrophic event. Along the way, Paxton and his team encounter various obstacles, including treacherous seas, hostile locals, and rival treasure hunters. The novel is rich in historical detail, featuring vivid descriptions of ancient Egyptian culture and architecture, as well as the bustling streets of New York City in the late 1800s.
