About this listen
But Amelia, accompanied by her quixotic husband Emerson and Ramses, their elusive son, feels an awful, nameless foreboding as she stands upon the decks of the ship that bears them across waters of the Mediterranean towards Egypt.
Perhaps it has something to do with what transpired the last time they investigated the ruins of the Black Pyramid. On that infamous occasion they came face-to-face with Sethos, that chameleon-like villain otherwise known as The Master Criminal. While successful in depriving this "genius of crime" of his ill-gotten treasure, they were thwarted in their attempts to capture him. He escaped into the night like a wily serpent, revenge embroidered upon his countenance.
It is inevitable that The Master Criminal should come face-to-face with the inimitable Amelia Peabody again, but this time it is not antiquities he is after, but Amelia herself!

Great narration
I had to speed it up, but the narration really captures and breathes life into the characters. I’ve read the book many times, but enjoyed it as if for the first time.

Amelia Peabody's adventures are the best!
Elizabeth Peters writes a hilarious murder mystery. I have always loved these books, but hearing them read reminds you how brilliant her dialogue is. Brilliant.

Great fun
I really really like this narrator and the whole series so far is excellent. The stories are great fun and quite educational although sometimes the plots are rather too convoluted

Absorbing entertainment
Great, fun tale of archaeology and crime in Egypt. Amelia Peabody and Emerson are a hoot. The narrator is superb!
