I love books set on the Nile around the turn of the century so was instantly drawn to this one. Books set in Egypt during that time period are some of my favourite. There is an air of mystery from place as much as from what is going on in the story.
My tendancy reading any mystery set on the Nile is to compare it to Death on the Nile. This came out as a strong contender. It had no similarities, and plenty of twists. The secondary plot set in ancient Egypt gave it a bit of extra mystery trying to figure out if the two stories were intertwined, and if so, how.
This had plenty of twists, strong female characters, which I always appreciate, and of course the Nile as a backdrop. I've never read any Tasha Alexander before and will need to rectify that!
