MY REVIEW: <\/p>\n

~4 STARS~<\/strong><\/p>\n

Melody of Evil is yet another enjoyable addition to this fantastic series! Neferet has hired musicians for her stepdaughter\u2019s party. This time, the murder victim is one of the musicians. As Neferet delves deeper into the case, one of her family members becomes the main suspect. This case is very personal for her, and danger may be closing in.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

I enjoyed this latest installment because readers get a better look into Neferet\u2019s relationship with her husband in all its complexity. With each book, my respect for her grows. In this book, the author includes historical notes about music in ancient Egyptian society. Music was very important within the religious community, and music was the only area women were allowed to participate in regarding their religion. She also touches on the Theban underworld.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

Another winner from N.L. Holmes!<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/p>\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

N.L. Holmes is the pen name of a professional archaeologist who received her doctorate from Bryn Mawr College. She has excavated in Greece and in Israel, and taught ancient history and humanities at the university level for many years. She has always had a passion for books, and in childhood, she and her cousin (also a writer today) used to write stories for fun.<\/p>\n

The inspiration for her Bronze Age novels came with an assignment she gave to her students one day: here are the only documents we have telling us about a certain royal divorce in Ugarit in the 13th century. How much can we say about what happened? It quickly became apparent that almost anything we might come up with was as much fiction as historiography!<\/p>\n

Today, since their son is grown, she lives with her husband, two cats, chicken, and geese in northern France, where she gardens, weaves, plays the violin, dances, and occasionally drives a jog-cart. And reads, of course.<\/p>\n
