  I especially liked...

A particular plot twist that I do not want to reveal here, and the way that particular plot line is developed. It partially resolves a plot line that has been interwoven through every book almost from the beginning.

  I didn't like...

I can't think of anything I didn't really like. I guess there was alot more violence in this book.

  When I finished this book I wanted to...

As with every book in this series, I can't wait for another one. I have been trying to buy them up in hard back.

  This book made me feel...

Good. Happy, because they always come out good.

  The author of this book...

Is excellent.

  I recommend this book because...

It is fascinating and exciting. The intrigue and action is almost non-stop and the characters are interesting and engaging. And it shows Anglo/Egyptian society in the early part of the last century.

  Further Comments...

Every book in this series I have read is wonderful. The first book in this series is Crocodile On The Sandbank. The series is most facinating if read in order as much as possible because you meet Amelia and Emerson when they first meet and you follow their multitude of adventures as well as those of their many and varied family, friends, and acquaintances. You are with them as their precocious son 'Ramses' is born and grows up, when Nefret first joins their family and when Danial a family member as well. It is an excellent series and well worth reading.
