Took me a minute to recall
This is another story that I enjoyed reading a while ago, but like you couldn't remember the story's title at first. I ran a couple of searches for 'mummy' and 'sarcophagus' which turned up nothing either. But the process of searching for the story must have jarred something loose, because the phrase 'maiden's curse' popped into my head. I searched for that, and it's the story's title. The Maiden's Curse by Prudence Walker.
Thank you
That's the story, like you I searched for 'sarcophagus', 'Egyptian Exhibit' but I was still not certain if the remembered bits were from the same story.
