What a disappointment. I am not normally a fan of murder mysteries, but I gave it a try because of the King Tut story. When Patterson wasn't writing 3 page chapters or talking about himself, he was writing a dull tale of a fascinating story. No great revelations here or mysteries solved. The only redeeming quality is that it is a fast read, a 5th grader could probably read it although I don't recommend they do either.
