"Tourists are quite safe provided they don't do anything stupidly reckless," so Captain Owen, the Mamur Zapt, Head of Cairo's Political CID under British Rule, assures the press. But what of Monsieur Moulin, kidnapped from taking tea on the terrace at Shepheard's Hotel? How has Mr. Colthorpe Hartley also disappeared. No one has actually seen either victim vanish.... Are these ordinary crimes? Are they intended as deliberately symbolic blows at the British? Or are they just a means of discouraging tourism? Owen had better unravel it quickly, or else... And where better to start from than the donkey-vous beneath the terrace, home of Cairo's humble but enterprising youths who hire out their donkeys for photographs and rides...
Follow the Mamur Zapt's career through The Mamur Zapt and the Return of the Carpet and The Night of the Dog, both republished by Poisoned Pen Press.

The Donkey-Vous
What I truly enjoy about this historically fictionalized series is the setting of turn of the century Egypt. Even though the characters are the made up imaginings of the author including the Mamur Zapt an abundance of the political atmosphere is based on fact, as well as the number of countries involved in the running of Egypt's politics and economy. I find it quite enlightening and also disconcerting of how everybody wanted a piece of the Egyptian pie.
