The most remarkable thing about the mystery of the hidden tomb was there was only one set of stairs leading to it and none leading away from it.
It puzzled many. Papers were written on it, conferences held, theories were espoused and conspiracies discussed.
Of course it made great sense that the stairs only led to the tomb. After all what conclusion was there to be drawn if there was another set leading away from it.

Good one, Michael.
Thank you John.
If there had been a stairway out from it, I would expect it to be the setting of my next book! However, don’t the stairs down to it count as stairs away from it…?
A mystery inside the mystery a clever twisty tale. Well done you.
Thank you Ellen, have a lovely weekend..
Well, if you think about it, it makes perfect sense. You just turn around and walk the other way. Hey, I mean…you have only one set of steps leading to your front door 😀
Excellent , Michael a mystery indeed, why did they not think one set of stairs was sufficient? I like it!! x
