Mildred Farley takes one look at it, then trips and falls, suffering a badly sprained anke. "It's cursed!" she exclaims, visibly shaken by the artifact's reappearance. Soon all of Blue Hill is in an uproar, recounting various disasters brought on by the relic when Aunt Edie first brought it home forty years ago and blaming every new accident, injury, and mishap on the curse. Is the pot really to blame for the current rash of strange, unfortunate events, or is someone using rumors and supersition to cover up a crime? 20220719. Art objects, Egyptian Fiction.
