Description

SHE FOR WHOM THE SUN SHINES

Undercover artifact theft investigator Stefanie Adams and handsome Artifact Retrieval Team lead Thomas Burkhardt must head off trouble at the opening ceremonies of Egypt’s Grand Egyptian Museum, where anonymous notes threaten the glittering ‘Gold of the Pharaohs’ special exhibit. Things get sticky when the museum director includes Thomas’s mother, owner of Europe’s largest publishing house, on the suspect list. 

While in Egypt, Stefanie hopes to fulfill her dream of visiting the fabulous tomb of Queen Nefertari, She For Whom The Sun Shines. But her plans change when trouble comes from an unexpected quarter, and the thief resorts to murder to possess a golden relic of ancient Egyptian royalty.

Stefanie and Thomas narrow the suspects down to a few: the A-lister who imagines herself as an ancient Egyptian queen. A photographer who craves validation for an ancestor’s slight. And the men who love them. Members of the Kemet Forever Society, who all admit to an obsession with ancient Egypt, and aren’t above using their influence to get what they want.

Trailing their suspects up the Nile through temples and tombs, Stefanie and Thomas race against time to recover the stolen gold before it is secreted out of Egypt and another victim falls in the thief’s deadly game.

Advance Praise

“With Death in Luxor, M.A. Monnin transports readers to the fascinating sites of Egypt, offering a heady mix of romance and suspense. Monnin’s writing is so evocative that it’s as if we’re on the Nile or in Queen Nefertari’s spectacular tomb with heroes Stephanie and Thomas. If you loved Mary Stewart and Phyllis Whitney’s seductive works and relish a contemporary take on Elizabeth Peters’ beloved Amelia Peabody Mysteries, this is the series for you. It’s one of my favorites.”

—USA Today bestselling author Ellen Byron

“In Death in Luxor, M.A. Monnin weaves an intoxicating story set in Egypt, using some of the country's beloved antiquities. It’s complicated, but don’t worry—readers are in good hands. In book four of her Intrepid Traveler Mystery series, Stefanie and Thomas must separate the stone-cold killer and thief from possible suspects pulling a publicity stunt, putting their recovery efforts and murder solving skills to their hardest test yet.”

—Lane Stone, author of The Big Picture thriller trilogy 

"Death in Luxor, the fourth novel in M. A. Monnin’s acclaimed Intrepid Traveler Mystery series, is a smart, fast-paced, and delightfully romantic adventure that will keep you up well past your bedtime. Pure gold!"

—Connie Berry, USA Today bestselling author of the Kate Hamilton Mysteries

"Those familiar with Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile will enjoy its echoes in this story, which is told in a similar style."
