I was looking forward to reading this book.
Its set back around the turn of the century…check!
Its around an archaeological dig site….check!
Pompeii…check!
It sounded similar to Elizabeth Peters… check!
I just knew I was going to love it!!!
WRONG!!!!!
I’ve never read a Lady Emily mystery before this one and after finishing this I have no interest in reading anymore.
The book dose jump timelines between 79 AD and 1902.
The story in 1902 was dull and slow moving. And I didn’t like any of the characters in 1902.
The story set in 79 AD was a little better and I found myself enjoying it at times.
Overall I was really disappointed in the one.
I won the book from a goodreads giveaway.
