Eighty-one-year-old Maggie Burkhardt has spent the last five years flitting between the world’s luxury hotels, coming to rest at the Royal Karnak Hotel in Luxor, Egypt.

When an 8-year-old boy, Otto, and his well-meaning mother arrive, Maggie sees two easy targets. But she is more wrong than she could possibly know. Has she finally met her match in a child one-tenth her age?
