Product Description
Product Description
The year is 1919. An expedition led by famed archeologist, Professor Henry Fell, approaches an ancient Egyptian tomb deep inside solid rock--sealed from the outside world though long centuries. The international exploration team, which includes the popular British author, G.K. Chesterton, enters the burial chamber. Who would do such a thing?The sarcophagus is opened--but what they discover inside is not a three-thousand-year-old mummy but a freshly murdered corpse.Was it Sir Edward Narracourt, Fell's archrival who would like nothing better than to discredit the professor's work? Or Mamur Zapt, an escaped convict and revolutionary leader who is a member of the team only because of his knowledge of the geography? What about Elliot Jones, a journalist desperate to make name for himself? Or Colonel Race, the eccentric and secretive member of the party who formerly served in British Military Intelligence?

A good mystery, but the beginning is difficult to follow,
By Dan Williams (Winder, GA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Murder In The Mummy's Tomb (Paperback)
I chose this book at the bookstore and it sat on my shelf for over a year. I then read the entire book over four days. So once I was hooked, I couldn't put it down. But the beginning was difficult because there were so many characters to remember. It was also several chapters before the murder occurred. So by the time the murder happened I still didn't know who everyone was and that made it really confusing. But needless to say, I enjoyed the book. Knowing and understanding the characters was my only dislike of the book.
