Flowers of Evil (Hani’s Daughter Mysteries Book 1) by N.L. Holmes – Review by Jennifer Crain
Flowers of Evil by N.L. Holmes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Sixth grade was a long time ago, so I am glad I read The Evil of Flowers- not only was it a superb mystery, it also refreshed my knowledge of Ancient Egypt. Although I figured out the mystery well before the end, I enjoyed the variety of characters, from young royal doctors to beggars to the poor to the royalty- this book has a little slice of all aspects of the community.
My favorite part of this book was how the doctors used sweets to gain patients- doctors still do this today with youngsters! I also enjoyed how the facts of Egyptian life were interwoven in the story (rather than being weird facts that didn’t flow).
