Wheel Of Evil by N.H. Holmes (Stephanie Tellas)

“Neferet, a young woman in a masculine led world fearlessly embarks on an investigation into the death of a man who conducted business with her uncle and a group of unsavory men. She had previously proven her propensity to successfully embark and resolve investigations like this one. However, should her case ruffle the feathers of the unsavory world rumbling barely visible to the bare eye of society, her and/or her family could fall victim to the perpetrators. Initially her father expressed concern that she may try to look into the matter but quickly assessed that he cannot control a strong minded, independent young woman. Neferet’s character is one that will resonate with readers who were ever underestimated, ignored, etc due to age, sex, and/or beauty. I loved her dog Brute, a large mastiff due to my love of the breed and understanding of their beautiful personalities and intense protectiveness. I also enjoyed how Neferet’s family appeared rather close and they all depended upon one another. She had the support of her husband, Ptah-mes, as well as Maya, Hani, Mom, Pop, Meyer-ra, Pa-kiki to name a few. How could I forget uncle Pipi who as usual landed himself in a very precarious situation that the family was unfortunately quite used to. The deeper they dive into the problem, the sketchier things appear. While they try to get to the bottom of things, they need to be extremely careful and cautious.”
Great story line, great characters, unique story, cannot wait to read the next one. I give this book 4 stars.
