Review:

I can't wait for the next Peabody story... I really do think Elizabeth Peters' books are great entertainment.' (Angela Rippon)

A writer so popular that the public library has to keep her books under lock and key. (Washington Post Book World)

Think Miss Marple with early feminist gloss crossed with Indiana Jones... accomplished entertainment. (Guardian)
