 I'm not usually one for what you might call a "rollicking read" but I enjoyed this. I highly recommend the audio; the narration really makes the book. I was first introduced to Amelia Peabody in high school and she remains a treat (if one that is best enjoyed sparingly). There is no mystery to speak of. Think of this as more of an adventure thriller.
