Description
"These Egyptian hieroglyphics spell "murder." "Classic, almost textbook, golden age detective fiction. The plotting is ingenious and fiendishly convoluted." - Vintage Pop Fictions In 1922, English anthropologist Howard Carter discovered the long-hidden tomb of King Tutankhamun, and the world went Egypt-crazy. Just a few years later, New York is not immune to the craze, and even Philo Vance, that eminent scholar-sleuth, has some sympathy for the fad-though of course he knows lots more about the topic than Carter ever did. When a wealthy Egyptologist is murdered, with mysterious inscriptions and artifacts dotted round, it's only natural that John FS Markham calls Philo for help. After all, Markham is merely the New York District Attorney, whereas Philo Vance is . . . well, Philo Vance. Praise for the Philo Vance series "With his highbrow manner and his parade of encyclopedic learning, Philo Vance is not only a detective; he is a god out of the machine." - The New York Times "The Philo Vance novels were well-crafted puzzlers that captivated readers . . . the works of S.S. Van Dine serve to transport the reader back to a long-gone era of society and style of writing." - Mystery Scene "Outrageous cleverness . . . among the finest fruits of the Golden Age." - Bloody Murder"--,Provided by Freading.
