Recenzii

Stabenow brings Alexandria's Hellenistic period to life while demonstrating that murder, methodical detective work, and politically expedient resolutions that fall short of justice are nothing new under the sun. Best known for her series featuring Alaska investigator Kate Shugak, Stabenow is as much at home in ancient Egypt as she is in the Alaskan wilderness
The characters are fascinating, the descriptions gorgeous, the plot swift-paced and the dialogue convincing. Hooked by chapter one, I couldn't put it down
A brilliant read... The history was fascinating
