The Secret of the Lost Pharaoh by Carolyn Arnold (Matthew Connor Adventure Series Book 2)
If you enjoyed City of Gold then you are going absolutely love The Secret of the Lost Pharaoh.
Matthew Connor is back in a new action packed, edge of your seat, treasure hunting mystery. I delved right into this book and I couldn’t put it down, I have always loved Egyptian History and it is clear that Arnold has done her homework on it as well as she really made you feel like you were right there with Matthew and Co as they help out on a archaeological dig of a lifetime.
The fabled Emerald Tablets and the tomb of an unknown Pharaoh sees the dig site leader Alex get in touch with Matthew to convince him to come and join her team, Matthew has long been fascinated by the prospect of finding the Emerald Tables that he needs no persuasion and wrangles Cal and Robyn along for the ride – though they are both still recovering from there brush with death in the previous book – what could go wrong in this one right?
Once in Egypt they meet the others on the dig team and get to work, though there are members that will you dislike and feel they are up to something but you get so wrapped up in the danger and adventure that awaits them in the tomb that you forget why you dislike then until all hell breaks loose!
This really is an action packed adventure that will make you feel you are right in the midst of the the discoveries they make and the danger they get into. I was slightly miffed at the ending, not how it ended more Matthews decision on something (don’t want to spoil it) I can see why he chose to do what he did but still, to actually go through what they did they had to protect the world somehow…
Dont miss the chance to read this fantastic series from Carolyn Arnold.
