Egypt, 1926. Fiercely independent American Jane Wunderly has made up her mind: she won't be swept off her feet on a trip abroad. Despite her Aunt Millie's best efforts at meddling with her love life, the young widow would rather gaze at the Great Pyramids of Giza than into the eyes of a dashing stranger. Yet Jane's plans to remain cool and indifferent become ancient history in the company of Mr. Redvers, a roguish banker she can't quite figure out . . . While the Mena House has its share of charming guests, Anna Stainton isn't one of them. The beautiful socialite makes it clear that she won't share the spotlight with anyone--especially Jane. But Jane soon becomes the center of attention when she's the one standing over her unintentional rival's dead body. Now, with her innocence at stake in a foreign country, Jane must determine who can be trusted, and who had motive to commit a brutal murder. Between Aunt Millie's unusual new acquaintances, a smarmy playboy with an off-putting smile, and the enigmatic Mr. Redvers, someone has too many secrets. Can Jane excavate the horrible truth before her future falls to ruin in Cairo . . . and the body count rises like the desert heat? 650 0 Americans|zEgypt|zCairo|vFiction. 650 0 Hotels|zEgypt|zCairo|vFiction. 650 0 Murder|xInvestigation|vFiction. 651 0 Cairo (Egypt)|xHistory|y20th century|vFiction. 655 7 Mystery fiction.|2gsafd 655 7 Historical fiction.|2gsafd 800 1 Neubauer, Erica Ruth.|tJane Wunderly mystery ;|v01.
