Resumen del Editor
Egypt, 1926. Fiercely independent American Jane Wunderly has made up her mind: she won't be swept off her feet on a trip abroad. Despite her Aunt Millie's best efforts at meddling with her love life, the young widow would rather gaze at the Great Pyramids of Giza than into the eyes of a dashing stranger. Yet Jane's plans to remain cool and indifferent become ancient history in the company of Mr. Redvers, a roguish banker she can't quite figure out....
While the Mena House has its share of charming guests, Anna Stainton isn't one of them. The beautiful socialite makes it clear that she won't share the spotlight with anyone - especially Jane. But Jane soon becomes the center of attention when she's the one standing over her unintentional rival's dead body.
Now, with her innocence at stake in a foreign country, Jane must determine who can be trusted, and who had motive to commit a brutal murder. Between Aunt Millie's unusual new acquaintances, a smarmy playboy with an off-putting smile, and the enigmatic Mr. Redvers, someone has too many secrets. Can Jane excavate the horrible truth before her future falls to ruin in Cairo...and the body count rises like the desert heat?

Historia
Erin Coleridge's used bookstore in Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire, England, is a meeting place for the villagers and, in particular, for the local Jane Austen Society. At the Society's monthly meeting, matters come to a head between the old guard and its young turks. After the meeting breaks for tea, persuasion gives way to murder with extreme prejudice when president Sylvia Pemberthy falls dead to the floor. Poisoned? Presumably, but by whom? And was Sylvia the only target?

Olivia Moreland prides herself on discrediting charlatans, particularly the false mediums that flock to London. But when Lord Stephen St. Leger requests her help in investigating an alleged psychic's claims, she can't deny the ominous feeling she has within the walls of his ancient estate - or the intimately familiar connection she has with Stephen himself. The last time he'd called Blackhope Hall home, Stephen had watched as his elder brother claimed both the family title and the woman he loved.

Sherlock Holmes is an unparalleled genius who uses the gift of deduction and reason to solve the most vexing of crimes. Warlock Holmes, however, is an idiot. A good man, perhaps; a font of arcane power, certainly. But he’s brilliantly dim. Frankly, he couldn’t deduce his way out of a paper bag. The only things he has really got going for him are the might of a thousand demons and his stalwart flatmate. Thankfully, Dr. Watson is always there to aid him through the treacherous shoals of Victorian propriety...

So when pompous, pious Reverend Josiah Holworthy publicly condemns him for debauchery, Wrexford unsheathes his rapier-sharp wit and strikes back.

Not my favorite narrator
Enjoyed the story. The narrators cadence was way off to me. Probably will skip her reads in the future.

Love Egypt mysteries
I have a weak spot for mysteries that take place in Egypt. This one was good. Several plots going, keeping you guessing to the culprit. I found this book by looking up the narrator. I listen to another series that she narrates. I am very glad I found it and am looking forward to the next book and finding out more about Jane.

Delightful Read
Setting the Scene: American widow Jane Wunderly is traveling with her somewhat cantankerous Aunt Millie. She is determined to avoid Millie's blatant attempts to find her a husband, particularly after her disastrously abusive first marriage. Jane's only interest is in the wonders of 1920s Egypt, particularly the pyramids of Giza. Unfortunately, spoiled socialite Anna Stainton seems to have taken a particular dislike to Jane, and when Jane discovers Anna's body, her love life becomes the least of her worries. Fortunately, the dashing, if mysterious, Redvers is more than willing to help. Clearly Miss Stainton was no innocent, but the evil Jane and Redvers uncover while investigating her murder is more than they could have imagined.
What I Thought: This was a delightful read, and I quickly binge listened to all 4 books in the series that currently are available. Jane Wunderly is no wilting violet and quite capable of standing up for herself, even if Redvers' apparent experience in somewhat clandestine matters does prove useful. Some reviews have challenged the historical accuracy of certain language. I am not at all convinced the criticism is valid, but even if it is, it did not detract from the overall enjoyment of the characters, the mystery, and even the glimpse of archaeology in 1920s Egypt.
I also applaud the narration of this book. The voices and accents were well done.

i really liked this book...
while the narrator's voice irritated me at first then I found myself wanting to get back to listening to it and I liked the story well enough that I looked forward to her telling me her story. I would definitely listen to another one of this author and narrator again.
