I've found I'm really into historical fiction mysteries and this one really fit the bill. The rest of the series is on my TBR for this year.

A beautiful story set in 19th century Egypt, although it was a bit repetitive and could‘ve been maybe a third shorter. Mystery, magic, lies, and secrecy all woven together to weave this gorgeous tale. I don‘t think I like the cliffhanger though. Book #102 in 2025 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

EBook is on sale at Amazon today - £1.99/€2.13. (might be today only)

I continue to be completely fascinated by this series. The Cousins‘ War,also known as the Wars of the Roses,never loses its grip, and each queen‘s story is more compelling than the last. Elizabeth remains my favorite queen so far;her strength,and resilience feel especially vivid.The mystery surrounding the imposter boy who would be king adds an irresistible layer of intrigue and suspense.A richly told read that earns every one of its five stars.

Loved rereading these with the Shardlakians and the #ShardlakeBR. Tudor history + a superb detective = excellent series! 🤩

I am madly in love with Mimi Matthews‘ writing and books. True romance (very clean), great stories, lovable characters… so good. This is the fourth in the series but I read it first since it is set at Christmas. Now reading books 1-3. #greatromance #historical #christmas

This was a gripping read, possibly a familiar story, but in a less familiar location.
