Winner of the CWA Last Laugh Award, an irresistible historical
mystery in which the Mamur Zapt investigates the illegal trade of
antiquities in the Cairo of the 1900s. Cairo, 1908. Captain Gareth
Owen, the Mamur Zapt or head of Cairo's Secret Police, turns his
attention to the illegal trade of antiquities when Miss Skinner
arrives. She's a woman with the habit of asking awkward questions.
But what is she doing looking for crocodiles? And mummified ones at
that? Owen's new brief is to see that Egypt's priceless treasures
stay in Egypt. But when Miss Skinner narrowly escapes falling under
a conveyance, Owen must labour to thwart killers and face an even
graver problem: whether to ask the pasha's lovely daughter to marry
him....
