A night at the museum, a dead body and a trail to Cairo. Sounds like a case for Miss Clara Vale!

1930: Miss Clara Vale, chemistry major turned detective, is taking a night off from sleuthing to attend the launch party of a new exhibition at the Hancock Museum in Newcastle. But when the piece de resistance, a rare ornate sarcophagus, is finally opened and it turns out the mummy inside it is a fake it looks like there is no rest for Clara after all...

Later that night, she is summoned back to the museum and asked to investigate a series of stolen Egyptian artefacts. Using her scientific and forensic prowess, Clara, with her trusted assistant Bella in tow, embarks on a trail that will lead from Newcastle to London and along the river Nile to Cairo.

But she is not the only person hunting for stolen antiquities and when she uncovers an international smuggling ring with a penchant for murder, it becomes clear that Clara's own life is in danger too.

Can Clara catch the smugglers before they get away with another murder among the pyramids?

This is a great addition to the Clara Vale series. The story is good, grasping the attention of the listener/reader. The audio version’s narration is excellent. I am looking forward to the next one in the series!

Great story and convincing narrator

This is by far the worst of the series - I thoroughly enjoyed the first two but this just dragged on and on with too many characters that didn’t add much to the story and were merely there to obfuscate!
And then the main protagonist turns up out of nowhere…..
I hope any future books in the series get back to the core story in Newcastle!

Not the best in the series!
