A RIVER IN THE SKY

Amelia Peabody is back! She isn't in Egypt this time. Ramses has been doing some archeological work in Jerusalem. The family follows him and Emerson has been asked to follow a fellow archeologist who is believed to be a spy. The world is changing and is on the brink of WWI. Ramses and David are kidnapped and it is up to Amelia and crew to save the day.

As usual, the plot of these books can be kind of convoluted and hard to follow. Still, one has to love all of the characters of these books and it was a delight to be with them and following their exotic adventures again. It was funny to read about Ramses and Nefrette as young people who had not become a couple yet. Still, I loved my time with the Emerson family once again!
