Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Huy had been a scribe during Akhenaten's reign. He survived the bitter return to the old ways, gods & a new pharoah's reign under the yoke of rivals Horemheb & Ay, but at the cost of his profession. Unable to live by previous means he is 'unofficially' asked by a Medjay policeman to assist in solving the mysterious deaths of young beautiful girls.
The deaths are due to unknown cause & pressure mounts to find the guilty party(ies) quickly. Huy uses keen observation, commonsense, contacts and instinct to probe the frightening murders.
The author sets the mood & period very capably. Dialogue & descriptions are very readable & are void of distracting 'modernisms' & comparisons.
While not a 'classic', it is a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon distraction & a pleasure to read.
