Publisher's Summary

Captain Gabriel Lacey accompanies famous dandy Lucius Grenville to Egypt, a land that Lacey has long anticipated visiting. Lacey travels there for more than a simple holiday, however - James Denis has tasked him with finding an "object" in Alexandria and procuring it, whatever the cost.

The task does not turn out to be so simple. Locating what Denis wants in the teeming city proves difficult, sending Lacey and Grenville exploring tombs and temples down the Nile. Lacey must deal with treasure hunters, a shadow following him and his friends, murder, and missing his new family as he explores the exotic country he has so longed to see....

Audiobook 11 in the Captain Lacey Regency Mysteries series.

Gabriel and company try to stay alive in Egypt

If I could give James Gillies 10 stars, I would. The man is an abs genius: every character has a different voice. He does women, foreign accents, British dialects to perfection. I have never listened to a more versatile narrator.

Of course, Ashley Gardiner’s Captain Gabriel Lacey books are a perfect showcase for James’ talents; her writing and Gabriel’s adventures from the Regency period are nothing short of brilliant. This book is different to the others in the series because it takes place in Egypt. The time period is a very interesting time in Egyptian history.

Absolutely love the writer, the series and the narrator and I urge lovers of crime, mystery and historical books to start reading/listening to this wonderful series.
