An Amelia Peabody mystery:
Writing style is a bit stilted, but characters are well-developed, plot picks up speed and carries you along, and there are twists and turns along the way. A good light read.
From the bookcover: "A Great War has ended, but evil still casts a long shadow over a violence-scarred land. One woman - an adventurer and archaeologist with a brilliant mind - must now confront a dreadful adversary more fiendish and formidable than any she has ever encountered. But by doing so, she may be feeding the flames of a devastating firestorm that threatens the fragile lives of the tender and innocent."
