Wheel of Evil (Hani’s Daughter Mysteries) by N.L. Holmes – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Wheel of Evil by N.L. Holmes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the third book in this series of historical cozy mysteries set in Ancient Egypt, and featuring Hani’s (from a previous series of books) daughter Neferet. I’m a big fan of both Neferet and this series of books and was not disappointed by this latest novel. Once again I was transported back in time thanks to the wonderfully written and detailed descriptive narrative and the added historical details. The intriguing storyline had me hooked throughout and I enjoyed investigating alongside Neferet, Bener-ib and their band of teenage detectives. Neferet’s Uncle Pipi has got involved in a ‘get rich quick’ scheme at a chariot workshop. She starts to investigate when investors start turning up dead. The team must discover what’s going on and who’s behind it, but the investigation turns deadly when Neferet becomes the next victim. The storyline kept me gripped and the plot twists kept me guessing as to the outcome of the story. I’m now waiting ‘impatiently’ for book four in this enjoyable and engaging series!
