Sarah VonLichtenstein

Elizabeth Peters has done it again! It doesn't get any better than this! With the return of many previous characters and with the addition of some new ones, this is one of Peters best novels yet. Amelia Peabody, her husband, Emerson, her son Ramses, and his wife, Nefret return with many other characters with as much humor as ever before. Once you start reading, you just can't put it down!
