Flowers of Evil
By: N.L. Holmes

This seems to be the start to a new series and I am so glad. It is a cozy mystery set in Egypt. I love that the author is an archaeologist because it lets me know that the information about Egypt is going to be well researched and accurate. The two main characters are female healers. They were healing the king before he died. He left them with one word before his passing. They are determined to find who killed the king and they know that the word he said was a clue. In addition, the ladies are facing that their competition is doing much to take them down. But this isn’t enough to dissuade them from solving the murder and keep their careers going. I have to say that the author’s greatest talent is in her descriptions of ancient Egypt. She leaves nothing to the imagination and makes sure that there is a glossary for any unfamiliar terms. She paints such a vivid picture with her words that it is easy to forget that you are reading about a time long ago. I definitely recommend reading this. I cannot wait to see more of this series!
