Neferet is one of the main characters of the story. She works in a very male-driven industry. Still, the author has Neferet written to be a very strong-willed independent character that as a reader you couldn’t picture her doing anything else. Except for maybe becoming a detective lol. When a business associate of her uncle comes up dead it piques Neferet interest. The only issue is whether Neferet or any of her loved ones could become the next victim. I loved the flow of the story and the storyline. I absolutely recommend that you read the prior books in this series to get the full story. I can’t wait to go back to read the first two books in the series.
I am amazed that these books keep getting better and better. It’s rare that that happens in a series. That’s the mark of an excellent writer. It makes me want to find any and all other books by them and just absorb them all. This is the third in the series, and I highly suggest reading them all. I absolutely love the characters in this story. I really loved getting to know Neferet and her family even more in this adventure. This is another mystery with twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. What a wild ride from start to end. Holmes has a way of building a story with excellent details and a story that just flows.
This is the second book in the series. I am reading them in order. I always recommend reading any series in order. I do not feel like you are really missing anything important reading out of order. I do think it helps with the smaller details though. I liked this story even more than the first. I am usually pretty good at guessing mysteries, but this one kept me changing who I thought did it throughout the whole thing. There are so many likely choices when a character is so disliked. It was s surprise twist, and there’s nothing better than twists in mysteries! I could not wait for the third!
I love a good mystery and this fits the bill. This story takes place in ancient Egypt. I don’t think I have read a story in that place or time period before. I really enjoyed reading about the time and learning about the characters. The details in the story kept me hooked from the beginning. Stories where women fight to prove their worth are always favorites of mine. Even in this day and age, women often have to prove themselves. It’s sad to think in some ways, not much has changed in that way. It makes a great storyline though. Female empowerment is a beautiful thing. I really liked how the author included a map, glossary, historical notes, and character list at the beginning. It really helps to refer back to it as you read. Ancient Egypt has always fascinated me, but there is a lot I do not remember from school days. This author writes her story as if she were actually from the time. I appreciate that very much.

Holmes – Review by Crystal Brehant
Wheel of Evil is the third book in the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries series by N.L Holmes. I really enjoy these historical mysteries, which are woven with wonderfully rich historical details, texture, depth, interesting characters, adventure, intrigue, suspense, dramatic developments, emotion, tension, secrets, lies, family dynamics, and danger. This series is a direct spin-off from ‘The Lord Hani Mystery Series’, which I also love– but this time we follow Hani’s daughter, Neferet (and friends), as she gets drawn into some very intriguing mysteries. Neferet (and Co) plunge into another investigation when her uncle gets caught up in a get-rich-scheme where the ‘investors’ begin dying off…. What’s really going on here? With danger mounting, time is running out to get to the bottom of it all before it’s too late. Another intriguing cozy historical mystery, set in ancient Egypt- with plenty of vivid detailing and descriptions which helped to bring everything to life There is a definite ‘crime and investigation’ aspect to the story- and a ‘whodunnit’ mystery that kept me engrossed as I followed along to find out how everything played out in the end. Looking forward to ‘Melody of Evil’ (Book #4) Happy Reading…

Holmes – Review by Angela Hayes
This is the third book in the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries series and somehow it just keeps getting better! I had read quite a few different books by this author before starting this series, but it’s definitely my favorite of theirs. I highly recommend that you read the series in order for the best experience and to eliminate confusion. The flow of the story is well-paced, and everything unfolds naturally. Neferet and Bener-ib are some of my favorite characters I’ve come across! I don’t want to give away any spoilers, but the twists and turns this story takes you on are amazing. If you enjoy cozy historical mysteries, do yourself a favor and pick up this book (and this series)! You won’t be able to put it down until you reach the end. I can’t wait to see what this author has in store for us next!
Wheel of Evil is another fascinating historical cozy mystery set in Ancient Egypt and the third book in Hani’s Daughter Mysteries. From the beginning of the series, we not only get a good story, but also a history lesson. NL’s engaging storytelling vividly brings the story and images of that time to life. What trouble has Uncle Pipi gotten himself into? Who is behind the deaths of the investors? Super sleuth Neferet, Bener-ib, and her friends find themselves in another dangerous mystery. Piecing together the clues takes them deeper into the darker side, where they may just end up dead themselves. I won’t reveal more because you need to discover the events by yourself. What does NL have more in store for us next? If you want more of NL Holmes’s work, take a look at her The Lord Hani Mystery series, where it all began.
This is a series that keeps getting better and better with each book. I highly suggest reading the previous book as well to help your enjoyment of this series and this author. I enjoy this author’s writing style as well as their ability to pull me into the story with ease. This is a well written story that is full of mystery with some suspense. The characters are creative and connectable. I enjoyed how they pulled me into their world and had me turning pages fast. They add so much to the story’s entertainment value. I enjoyed their growth throughout the story which made it easy to read as well. This is a fast paced story and hard to put down. Find out what happens with this group of teenagers. I highly recommend this book and this author.
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.
Twists and turns were plentiful throughout the pages making this one helluva mystery. I was surprisingly pleased and impressed with how this developed.
I think fiction readers will thoroughly enjoy getting to know Neferet and her family while reading this book. It kept me engaged and intrigued. I feel like this was a diamond hiding in the rough. I give it 4 out of 5 stars.
When Neferet’s uncle Pipi gets sucked into a get-rich-quick scheme at a chariot workshop that is too good to be true, she’s not surprised when investors start turning up dead. Can she and Bener-ib and their band of teen-aged detectives find out what’s really at stake and who is behind it before she herself becomes the next victim?
N.L. Holmes is the pen name of a professional archaeologist who received her doctorate from Bryn Mawr College. She has excavated in Greece and in Israel and taught ancient history and humanities at the university level for many years. She has always had a passion for books, and in childhood, she and her cousin (also a writer today) used to write stories for fun.

Can she and Bener-ib and their band of teen-aged detectives find out what’s really at stake and who is behind it before she herself becomes the next victim?
Web of Evil is the second book to Hani’s Daughter’s Mysteries series. I recommend reading the first book so you can have a better understanding of what’s going on in book 2. This was a great murder mystery read. The world building was great. The characters was well thought of.
Neferet, Bener-ib and Mut-tuy return in this mystery, but this time, they are at their Lord Hani’s farm outside of Waset and it is a national holiday, so all of the family are there, they get to spend lazy days in the shade and sleep outside on a night, it is hot and the middle of summer, so when the men go off to the local river for the morning, nobody is overly concerned, that is until only two of them return and Lord Hani is not among them. The family is in a panic, so Neferet, Bener-ib and Mut-tuy run over to find out what has happened and it is at this point that they see Lord Hani on the riverbank with some of the local villagers and they are pulling something from the river, unfortunately, it is a body.
As the group head back with the corpse to the family holiday home, the physicians follow on and when the shade is reached, they examine the body to find a cause of death and once this is confirmed, the local priests are called to take away the body, but the mystery is who is the person? With this in mind, the three ladies head to the village to report the find to the Mayor, however, when they speak to her and they find out who the unfortunate victim is, the investigation truly starts. As the ladies visit the family of the deceased, they discover they are a family of weavers who have links to Neferet’s home town, but as they ask questions, the mystery is not clear cut.
Will Neferet, Bener-ib and Mut-tuy be able to discover who the perpetrator is and the motive behind this killing, or will the weavers, weave a tangled web which is too complex for them to unravel and will the past repeat itself and danger come calling a little too close to home? This is another historical mystery where justice is wanted, but can it be found, as secrets and lies abound while loyalty is challenged and answers revealed.

L. Holmes – – Review by Roxsanne Lesieur.
What a great second installment to the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries series. We get to experience this story alongside Neferet and Bener-ib, and it is incredibly suspenseful! I adore authors that include character lists, a glossary, and other notes at the beginning of the book because it kind of sets the stage. I also love how the characters are developed because Neferet is a force to be reckoned with. They ran into some unnerving mysteries and had me on the edge of my seat throughout. I definitely lost quite a bit of sleep because I needed to know what was going to happen next. The flow of the story felt so natural and before I knew it, I had blown through the entire book! I highly recommend picking up the first book before this one, but whatever you do, don’t miss out!
Neferet and Bener-ib are back with another mystery on their hands. While visiting Neferet’s family home, her father shows up with a corpse found in the water. Upon investigating, the women find the cause of death to be a blow to the head. Not sure if accidental or on purpose, Neferet is assuming murder.
Neferet and Bener-ib head into the town to identify the body. Turns out, everyone knew the victim but also everyone hated him for some reason or another.
Everyone is a suspect and it’s up to Neferet to narrow down the lists. She doesn’t know what are truths and what are lies as they get tangled information along the way.
Neferet has grown a lot from the first book of the series but she is still a fiery, stubborn yet kind woman. She is intelligent and quick to come to conclusions. This time around, it was easier for me to keep track of names. I love how Neferet will fight for what’s right even when no one else will!
Neferet and Bener-ib are two young women who are skilled healers. They opened up their own practice in hopes to help all those who need it. Unfortunately, another healer spread lies and rumors about the duo causing them to not have any patients. It doesn’t help that this book is set in ancient Egypt times, where women are usually seen and not heard.
To make things even more difficult for the women, their first patient is a dying man who cannot be saved. Someone murdered him. Neferet takes it upon herself to follow in her father’s footsteps and find out who did it.
The journey is a hard one. No one will take her seriously without a male present. Even her own father seems against Neferet doing this. She will stop at nothing to find justice for the man and to prove herself to everyone in the process.
I enjoyed this book. The author wrote a strong willed woman, trying to end sexist stereotypes and I was all for it. Neferet is intelligent and caring. She helps anyone without prejudice. She even takes in strays, whether it’s an animal or even orphan children.
Bener-ib mostly just followed Neferet around and acted as a wallflower but it worked for them.
My only downfall for this book is all of the difficult but yet similar names. I found it tough to keep track of names of the secondary characters.
I am excited about what the author is going to do for book 2 in the series!
When a corpse shows up on the banks of Hani’s country farm, Neferet takes charge in trying to solve the mystery of who did it. This is the first book I have read by this author, and will continue to read more. The story is interesting and flows well. I couldn’t put it down. Even though this is a series, it can be read as a standalone. Very good book!
Omg I honestly can’t put into words how much I adore this authors work. Ancient Egypt for me is a passion and something I am fascinated by and this authors knowledge and writing really transports me back. The authors attention to historical details as well as writing a unique story is what really brings these books and characters to life for me.
So this is book 2 in Hani’s Daughter Mystery series. This series has come after The Lord Hani Mystery Series, if you haven’t read them I highly recommend them. So we are back with Neferet (Hani’s daughter) and her friends as they embark on yet another murder mystery today to solve. Neferet is definitely following in her father’s footsteps and she is determined not to let a crime go unsolved no matter the consequences. When a body is found near the family farm Neferet is determined to find out what happened. When she discovers that it was a cause of murder she then starts the hunt for the murder but the victim wasn’t exactly well liked so with so many suspects will she be able to solve this case. Was it a case of two lovers getting rid of him so they could be together? Was it something to do with his work and the details of a company he knew? Or was it a member of his family or a angry employee that was pushed to far that cause his death. Neferet has a huge web of lies to unravel to get to the truth and maybe putting herself in danger in the process.
I honestly can’t speak highly enough of this author and their work. If you love murder mysteries with ancient Egyptian history then this is definitely the series for you. I can’t wait to read more.
Web of Evil is Book Two in the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries Series. It is a historical cozy mystery set in Ancient Egypt that centers around the character of Neferet, Hani’s daughter, who finds herself inadvertently wrapped up in a murder mystery after a body washes up on shore near her father’s rural residence. As they begin to unravel the clues, they find themselves drawn into a web of lies, deceit, and evil. The story is well written with great attention to historical details, vivid scene descriptions, and unique characters. The author does a great job of weaving a story full of mystery, danger, drama, suspense, intrigue, secrets, lies, and twists and turns that will keep you hooked until the end.

Holmes – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes
This is book 2 in the Hani Daughter Mysteries series, and I did not read book 1 prior. I may have had a little extra insight on some of the characters, but it did not really impact my view of the book. This was an interesting murder mystery that takes place in Egypt. You get an interesting perspective as a reader as you follow Neferet and the others as they go on a journey to try to solve a potential murder of a man whose body was found in the water nearby. There are many historical and geographical parts of the book that the author does a great job of including in the story. I felt like I learned a lot of historical information about Egyptian living while reading this book. The story was very interesting and I enjoyed it a lot.

Web of Evil is the second book to the absolutely incredible Hani’s Daughter Mysteries series. N.L. Holmes came back to continue with Neferet and her friends in another fantastic book. I adored book one and of course had to come and read the second one immediately. Once again, the writing is beautiful, the characters are scarily real, and it will hook you in immediately. I recommended the first book, and I recommend this one as well, however definitely read Flowers of Evil first!

Flowers of Evil by N. L. Holmes is the first book in the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries series. I’m sure I’m not the only one who can say that I could just feel the love and time the author put into this project, with all its vivid imagery and historical mentions. The characters in this practically jump off the page, they were so well written. It was hard not to read this in one sitting, I kept having to remind myself of things I needed to do to get myself to put it down! I wholeheartedly recommend not just this series but this author as a whole!

Neferet and Bener-ib develop an adventure of mystery and thriller where all can happen. The book takes time to get to the point, it does give you a lot of information that could be incorporated through the story in order to not feel overwhelmed from the first page. For those who enjoy detective stories and complex cultures, this one is all in one good package

Holmes – Review by Paloma Fierro 31/3/24
Web of Evil by NL Holmes is a captivating historical mystery novel that takes readers on a thrilling journey through ancient Egypt. The story follows Neferet, a strong-willed and determined young woman, as she and her companions unravel the mystery behind a corpse found near her father’s country house.
The author does a fantastic job of immersing readers in the ancient Egyptian setting, capturing the culture and traditions of the time with vivid detail. The plot is well-paced and keeps readers on the edge of their seats as the characters navigate through a complex web of deceit and betrayal.
One of the standout aspects of this novel is the strong and empowering female characters, particularly Neferet, who defies societal norms and fights for justice in a male-dominated world. The relationships between the characters are well-developed, providing depth and complexity to the story.

Holmes – Review by Jennifer Crain
The more they dig the worse it gets. Absolutely love this series and need to go back to read Lord Hani’s series. Neferet and Bener-ib are back and once again find themselves amid a mystery. It’s summer and the city heat can be overwhelming so the sunets take the orphans they care for to Neferet’s fathers’ country home on weekends to enjoy the open fields cooler air. What started as a calm day quickly became so much more when her father and brother-in-law return from their boat ride on the river with the body of a man that the reed cutters discovered. By the looks of the mans clothing they discover he must be from the local village and possibly a scribe. As midday looms overhead and the sun beats down on them Neferet, Bener-ib, Hani, Mut-tuy and their dog brute head to the village to speak with the mayor. Upon discovering that the mayor is a woman, Neferet is impressed and pleased at such a rare site but quickly discover the man, Tjay, is not well liked in the village and could have a long list of possible suspects in his passing. Meeting his wife Ta-em-resefu only confirms the dislike and the knowledge he did not treat her and their children well. Estranged from his entire family, besides a sister that is described as a strange bond with the entire village is a suspect. The webs begin for form when the wife explains that the mayor is Tjay’s stepmother, but that even she did not side with him and helped to protect his wife and children when he was in a bad mood. In a village of potential suspects how will they narrow it down? With so many reasons to end him, what was the final straw? Will Neferet succeed before it’s too late and the webs catch her? Once more this author pulls you back in time giving you a historically beautiful world mixed with relatable current day mystery and suspense. We continue to see Neferet grow and evolve as she becomes more experienced in not only reading the people around her but the environment. Will she be able to learn enough to keep out of the traps being laid around her pulling her deeper into the webs of evil that surround what she thought was an innocent scribe taken too soon. I cannot wait to see what will come next from this author.
Web of Evil is another great mystery in Hani’s daughter Mysteries, even though this is book 2 you could definitely read it as a standalone. I love the glossary, historical notes and character list, it does come in handy. All of the characters are very well written and likeable. This is set in Ancient Egypt, a nice cozy historical drama full of murder, danger, secrets, drama, lies, suspense and a whole lot more to keep you hooked from the beginning.

An entertaining historical cozy mystery drama which had me hooked throughout. The story is set in ancient Egypt during the first year of Tut-ankh-aten/amen’s reign, about 1335 BCE. The author really made me feel as though I had been transported back to this era through the both descriptive narrative and the added historical details. Neferet is the daughter of Hani, who features in another series by the author, which I also thoroughly enjoyed. The storyline follows physicians Neferet and Bener-ib along with their apprentice Mut-tuy. In this story a corpse washes up on the riverbank at Neferet’s father, Lord Hani’s house. The trio then visit the local village in the hopes of identifying the deceased, however, the three women soon become entangled in a web of secrets, lies and murder. Their investigations into a family of weavers put Neferet in danger but they all remain determined to discover the truth. I found the historical notes, character list and glossary at the start of the book very useful. I referred to the character list in particular many times, as the Egyptian names of the era do take a while to get used to. I love the three main characters and the fact that they are three independent and determined women physicians, who are likeable and relatable in 2024 even though they come from 1335 BCE!

Web of Evil is the second book in the Hani’s Daughter Mysteries. It continues the story of Neferet who is a healer. These cozy mystery books are full of suspense, mystery, intrigue, and an array of characters. I recommend starting these books with Flowers of Evil. There is a diverse arrangement of characters. The story does move between characters when telling the story which gives more information into what is happening in other places throughout.
