They say you can't choose your family . . . But what if they're
wrong? Chloe lives a quiet life. Working as a newspaper archivist
in the day and taking care of her nan in the evening, she's happy
simply to read about the lives of others as she files the news
clippings from the safety of her desk. But there's one story that
she can't stop thinking about. The case of Angie Kyle - a girl,
Chloe's age, who went missing as a child. A girl whose parents
never gave up hope. When Chloe's nan is moved into care, leaving
Chloe on the brink of homelessness, she takes a desperate step:
answering an ad to be a lodger in the missing girl's family home.
It could be the perfect opportunity to get closer to the story
she's read so much about. But it's not long until she realizes this
couple isn't all they seem. In a house where everyone has something
to hide, is it possible to get too close? Anna Wharton's debut, The
Imposter, is a thought-provoking story of obsession, loneliness and
the lies we tell ourselves in order to live with ourselves.
'Evocative and compelling' - Karen Hamilton, author of The Perfect
Girlfriend and The Last Wife
An Egyptologist investigates a death at the British Museum in a
"charming" Victorian mystery by the New York Times-bestselling
author of The Painted Queen (The Denver Post). Back in London after
an archaeological dig, adventurous sleuth Amelia Peabody--"rather
like Indiana Jones, Sherlock Holmes and Miss Marple all rolled into
one"--discovers that a night watchman at the museum has perished in
the shadow of a mummy case (The Washington Post Book World). There
are murmurings about an ancient curse, but a skeptical Amelia is
determined to find an all-too-human killer. Soon, she's balancing
family demands, including the troubles of her precocious son,
Ramses (aka Walter), with not just one unsolved crime, but two . .
. From a recipient of multiple honors including the Mystery Writers
of America's Grand Master Award, this murder mystery set in
Victorian-era England is a witty, rollicking, and "deeply
satisfying" romp (Entertainment Weekly) in a "jewel of a series"
(The New York Times Book Review).
