The Snake, the Crocodile and the Dog

The Snake, the Crocodile and the Dog (Amelia Peabody, #7)The Snake, the Crocodile and the Dog 
by Elizabeth Peters
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is book #7 in this 20-book series but it is the 18th one I have read. I love the character of Amelia Peabody--she is practical and sensible, and completely over-the-top. 
“It is much more sensible to be an optimist instead of a pessimist, for if one is doomed to disappointment, why experience it in advance?”
In this adventure she and her beloved Emerson return to the remote desert site where they first fell in love: Amarna, the holy city of Akhenaton and his beautiful queen, Nefertiti. 
This historical mystery counts toward the Historical Fiction Reading Challenge.
