Lord of the Silent
Book 13 of the Amelia Peabody series
During the 1915–1916 season, the Emerson family continues excavating at Giza while the Great War makes every unexplained visitor and antiquities theft potentially political. Newly married Ramses and Nefret attempt to build a life together even as separate dangers repeatedly draw the family into investigation. A series of attacks and suspicious archaeological dealings suggests that an enemy known as the Master Criminal may not be finished with them. Romantic and suspenseful, this installment suits readers who enjoy wartime Egypt, married sleuths, criminal disguises, and family ensembles balancing excavations with danger.
