Publisher Description

"Lots of familiar faces in this one, and a few new ones I hope to see again, with a more complex plot and much higher stakes. I really do adore Schmidt, and John continues to shine, in all his tarnished glory. Vicky's relationships with them--and their relationship with each other--are stellar."

    " Fabulous book!!! I didn't think Elizabeth Peters would be able to top Trojan Gold, but this is flawless. Everything from Feisal to the return of the gang from Silhouette in Scarlet. I love the part where Vicky confesses her love for John while she's locked in a wardrobe. "

    " I always felt like Elizabeth Peters was cheating with this one - taking Vicky Bliss to Egypt, the same location as the Amelia Peabody series. Of course, this leads to plenty of insider references to Amelia & Co., dramatic settings (and escapes), the required injuries to long-suffering John, and the usual madcap adventures and art-related crimes. Fun and entertaining, like the rest of the series. No need to read them in order - she always catches you up. "

    " Not quite as good as some of her other novels, it was harder for me to get into these characters and I didn't care for Vicky as much as I like Amelia Peabody. I'm not really sure what the difference is either. Oh, well I guess I can't always like everything an favored author has written. "
