Amelia Peabody The Falcon at the Portal, Book 11, (Paperback)

from antiquary

In general O prefer the pre-World War I stores in this series. This one is 1911, and the Peabody family's young friend David is accused of stealing antiquities; a murdered American's body is found at an archaeological site, and somebody is shooting at Amelia.

from tjsjohanna

There is plenty to like about this latest adventure of the Emerson family. Relationships come to fruition, jealousy leads to impetuous and even deadly results, the mystery has plenty of turns, and there is increasingly more of Ramses, who I find to be such an interesting character, though perhaps...

::sigh:: Sometimes you just need a good romance. And this is one of Peters' best. I think I'm a bit in love with Ramses myself. I usually try to space these out a bit, but I think I'm going to have to go directly to He Shall Thunder in the Sky. . .

from NewsieQ

A wonderfully complex, beautifully written book with an interesting plot and, as usual, colorful characters.

from VictoriaJZ

a good sense of humor, interesting to read and detailed enough to hold my interest
