Acerca de esta escucha

A cruise down the Nile, a camel ride around the pyramids, lunch in the shadow of the Sphinx… And a very dead body!

1924. Lady Eleanor Swift and her butler Clifford are touring the great, ancient sights of Egypt on a much-anticipated extended vacation. But when the pair arrive at the docks in Cairo expecting to board the luxurious paddle steamer advertised in their brochure, they are baffled by the crumbling old cruiser waiting for them. And things only go from bad to worse as death stalks the decks of the SS Cleopatra…

Two days into the trip one of their fellow passengers, Lieutenant Baxter, is found shot dead in his locked cabin. Immediately suspicious and desperate to see justice done, Eleanor discovers a half-finished note addressed to her hidden in Baxter’s travelling trunk. In it he asks her to deliver a vitally important letter to the authorities at their next stop down river: a priceless treasure worthy of a king has been stolen and an innocent man’s life hangs in the balance.

But before the sands of time wipe away all evidence on board, Eleanor must uncover who among the other travellers wanted Baxter dead. Was it the anxious archaeologist who doesn’t have an alibi, the reptile expert with a passion for the murderous Nile crocodile or the art dealer with a devious secret?

With the killer readying to strike again much closer to home, can Eleanor dig up the truth before she’s trapped in a tomb under the pyramids forever?

A gripping and twisty 1920s murder mystery set in Egypt, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, T.E. Kinsey and Lee Strauss!

Egyptian Excitement

The best so far. A thrilling adventure, well written and perfectly performed. Eleanor and Clifford triumph again.

Wit and Intrigue = A Great Read

Lady Swift and Clifford are back with their signature witty banter and a mystery with more twists and turns than the Nile. Reminiscent of Murder In An Irish Castle (set in the rural hamlet of Derrydee, Ireland) this story takes place in an obscure part of Egypt, rather than the more well known and luxurious Cairo, giving it a unique atmosphere focusing readers on the story more than the accommodations and attractions. Even so, the discovery of King Tut's tomb several years earlier merits a reference or two. This is also very much Eleanor's and Clifford's adventure, with little interaction from "the ladies" and the complete absence of dear Hugh. While I thoroughly enjoyed the mental acuity and physical nimbleness of the two in this outing, I do look forward to spending more time with the other beloved characters, and especially Hugh, in future. Nevertheless, find a quiet spot, a comfortable chair, maybe a nice cuppa, and settle in to enjoy the humor and escapades of Lady Swift and Clifford.

Karen Cass does her usual superb job of bringing these characters to life.

No meat

Love this series, but this is my least favorite so far. Just seemed like the meat was missing from it. Did not hold my attention like all her others did.

Unsuspected Turn

Enjoyed this storyline and the historical link within Egypt. Like the author’s ability to focus on different aspect of Swift’s life in each of her books.

Excellent Storytelling and Fun

Again, I spent the day listening to another Verity Bright novel that came pretty darn close to DamevAgatha Christie’s travel tale on the River Nile. Well done!

Difficult to engage

Good story. Not my favorite. Strangely, I’ve been to Egypt and traveled up the Nile. Even though it’s easy to imagine the landscape, I didn’t have any easy time “seeing” the author’s descriptions and didn’t really engage in the story until 3 hours into the book. The characters were diverse and not well described. I couldn’t see them in my mind. This isn’t typical for my experiences with Verity’s books. I’m being generous with my stars because the performance is always wonderful. It’s the writing the got me on this one.
