What is this book about?
Newlyweds Lord and Lady Astley have already experienced their fair-share of suspense, but when a honeymoon trip takes a detour to the mystical land of Egypt, not even Grace with her fiction-loving mind is prepared for the dangers in store. From an assortment of untrustworthy adventure-seekers to a newly discovered tomb with a murderous secret, Frederick and Grace must lean on each other to navigate their dangerous surroundings. As the suspects mount in an antiquities’ heist of ancient proportions, will Frederick and Grace’s attempts to solve the mystery lead to another death among the sands?
My review:
I just adore the relationship between Freddie and Grace. His maturity and staid personality is well matched with her innocence and vibrancy. On a trip to Egypt, the couple manages to get embroiled in another mystery where the stakes are high and the suspects are many. The only thing keeping me from finding perfection in this story was the numerous cast of characters but I really enjoyed exploring ancient tombs with Grace.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
Grace and Freddie’s relationship
What I didn’t like about this book:
Lots of characters
Would I recommend this book to others? Yes. Interesting characters, multi-suspect mystery and sweet romance. This is the second book in the series. It can be read as a standalone but book one gives a better understanding of Grace and Freddie’s relationship.
