On her way to Cairo, Amelia rescues young Evelyn Barton-Forbes, who has been abandoned by her scoundrel lover. Together the two women sail up the Nile to an archeological site run by the Emerson brothers-the irascible but dashing Radcliffe and the amiable Walter. Soon their little party is increased by one-one mummy that is, and a singularly lively example of the species.\n\nStrange visitations, suspicious accidents, and a botched kidnapping convince Amelia that there is a plot afoot to harm Evelyn. Now Amelia finds herself up against an unknown enemy-and perilous forces that threaten to make her first Egyptian trip also her last . . .\n\nPraise for Elizabeth Peters and Crocodile on the Sandbank\n\"A writer so popular that the public library has to keep her books under lock and key.\" -Washington Post Book World\n\n\"Grand views of Egyptian antiquities . . . a sparkling series.\" -Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0445406518\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0445406518.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Peters, Elizabeth\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Mass market paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Mass market paperback in ACCEPTABLE condition.
