This book is a complete winner in its genre! It offers warm friendships, engaging characters, sweet clean romance, mystery, humor, atmosphere, plenty of interesting and technical historical details, impeccable writing. Loved the quirky narration in which the main character addresses the reader. I totally felt that Amelia was real while reading this. Ok, I may be a bit of a pushover but still. I was completely impressed with the way the author drew a visual picture to accompany dialogue. She describes the characters' gestures, facial expressions, their entire countenance in such a way that one can not help but feel it as well as hear it. Elizabeth Peters is a genius in every sense. So happy to discover her and to find that she is a very prolific author.
