'Fast-paced, tongue-in-cheek spy romp. Enjoy the ride!' Frances
Evesham** Cairo. December 1917. Following a tip-off from notorious
spy Fredrick Fredricks, Fiona Figg and Kitty Lane of British
Intelligence find themselves in the hustle and bustle of Egypt. But
ancient mummies aren’t the only bodies buried in the tombs of
Cairo. When a young French archeologist is found dead in a tomb in
the desert with his head bashed in, and an undercover British agent
goes missing, the threat moves closer to home. As they dig deeper,
soon Fiona and Kitty uncover a treasure trove of suspects,
including competing excavators, jealous husbands, secret lovers,
and belligerent spies! Fiona wonders if the notorious Fredrick
Fredricks could be behind the murders? Or is the plot even more
sinister? One thing is clear – If Fiona and Kitty can’t catch
the killer, they might end up sharing a sarcophagus with Nefertiti.
**With humor as dry as the Arabian desert, and pacing as fast as a
spitting camel, Fiona and Kitty are back in another sparkling
adventure, this time in WW1 Egypt. What readers are saying about
