Death Shall Come

An Ishmael Jones Mystery

Ishmael Jones is faced with a dead body and a missing mummy in this highly entertaining, genre-blending mystery.

“Death shall come on swift wings to whoever desecrates this tomb....”

Ishmael Jones and his partner Penny have been summoned to remote Cardavan House, home of the world’s largest private collection of Ancient Egyptian artefacts, for the unveiling of George Cardavan’s latest acquisition: a bona fide Egyptian mummy.

When a bloodstained body is discovered beside the empty sarcophagus, Ishmael is dismissive of the theory that the mummy’s curse is to blame. Instead, he sets out to uncover the human killer responsible. But how can Ishmael explain the strange, shuffling footsteps that creep along the corridors? Who is playing games with them...and why?

I love this series

Author Simon R Green is a master story weaver of mystery and wit and I cannot imagine who would be able to deliver the story with such precision other than Mr. GildartJackson. I await another in the series

Lots of intrigue

I love Simon R Greene books. He keeps you guessing until the last minute.

not my thing

like a 50s mummy movie.. just not interesting cause there's no human motivations.. everyone is a caricature..

Love the dialogue

Death Shall Come is a fun listen. I love the dialogue. Gildart Jackson's reading is great.

Love Ishmael in this archeology intrigue book!

I have always been a fan of this author but somehow missed this series of his. I didn't read the previous books but was able to jump right in and not get lost. A great supernatural mystery with mummies, archeology intrigue, and rich family tensions. Ishmael and Penny are there to help sort things out. Fun read! Ishmael is literally out of this world!😉!
