Crocodile on the Sandbank by Elizabeth Peters
Did not finish book. Stopped at 37%.
Big oof on the racism, and not just period appropriate stuff. I absolutely expect racism from the characters. I don't expect it from the author. Wilkie Collins wrote The Moonstone over a century before Elizabeth Peters wrote Crocodile on the Sandbank, and he managed to be much less racist.
I was hoping for a cozy mystery that would allow me to enjoy Barbara Rosenblat narration. This isn't it. DNF @ 37%.
