The Return of the Pharaoh: From the Reminiscences of John H. Watson, M.D. by Nicholas Meyer
4.0
This was such a fun read, with classic Sherlock Holmes antics, Watson being the voice of reason, and spooky Egyptian mystery.
Watson and his wife have travelled to Egypt to assist his wife’s illness with the dry, desert air. But fate would have Watson running into an old friend. Holmes has taken up residence in the same area, trying to get to the bottom of a missing nobleman, who may have run into trouble trying to uncover a missing pharaoh’s tomb and the treasures within. When more egyptologists start missing, Holmes and Watson realize this case could be putting them in grave danger.
This book made me want to revisit some old Sherlock Holmes classics, and seeing as I want to read more classics this year I might just fit one in!
