Miss Roxanne Sydney travels to London to attend a wedding, and when one of her two exotic cat statues--artifacts from her father's Egyptian travels--is stolen, she has a mystery on her hands.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Unlike its predecessors, "The Brighton Burglar" and "The Secret Scroll," "The Cairo Cats" is a much better mystery. Instead of jumping way ahead of the heroine, the reader actually figures out the mystery at the same time. However, still be prepared to get rather annoyed at the heroine for being obtuse frequently during the mystery. The plot moves to London instead of Brighton and does not follow the same pattern as the other two, keeping this book from descending into unimaginative drivel. Also, the book contains some real funny plot twists involving a replication of many Cairo Cats.For romance lovers who missed a real relationship in Ms. Poore's previous books of this series, the romance begins to heat up between the hero and heroine. The sexual tension makes the book better reading by keeping the main characters interesting.The series definitely improves with this one. Look to "The Mummy's Mirror" for a completion of the series.
