The Mummy Case (Amelia Peabody, #3) by Elizabeth Peters

So glad I decided to read this series as it just keeps getting better and better.

In The Mummy Case we get more of the wonderful Amelia rampaging her way across Egypt with her equally wonderful husband, Emerson. Both characters are larger than life and always entertaining, especially in their dealings with each other. In this episode in the series their son, Ramses, joins them for the first time on an archaeological dig. He adds a whole new dimension to the humour partly because he falls into trouble at every possible opportunity and partly because he is the smartest child in the known universe. I love the way he interacts with his mother!

Of course there are a few murders along the way and Amelia does her usual sleuthing which causes the usual amount of chaos. It is all good fun and I laughed aloud at the best bits. I am already looking forward to the next book.
