The Mummy Case
by Elizabeth Peters (Congdon & Weed, 1985); audiobook read by Susan O’Malley (Blackstone, 1999)
Although the mystery is not investigated in any meaningful way, Peters’ knowledge of Egyptology adds depth and her narrative is quietly amusing. Susan O’Malley’s audiobook reading bears suitable record of Amelia Peabody, Emerson, and the precocious wunderkind Ramses, preserving their dignified foolery.
