The Antique Hunter's Death on the Red Sea

A Novel

De: C.L. Miller

Narrado por: Fiona Hardingham

“Freya and Aunt Carole, everyone’s favorite antique-hunting, mystery-solving duo, return in a sequel that somehow manages to be even more captivating than their first adventure” (Tom Ryan, USA TODAY bestselling author) as they are on the hunt for a dangerous criminal aboard a cruise ship.

When a painting vanishes from a maritime museum and a dead body is found nearby, Freya Lockwood and her Aunt Carole of the Lockwood Antique Hunter’s Agency are called to investigate.

Following a lead that takes them aboard a glamorous antiques cruise sailing toward the Red Sea in Jordan, they quickly discover that the ship’s art gallery is filled with stolen antiquities. Each antique is also listed in Freya’s late mentor’s journals that detail unsolved cases. In chasing a murderer with a stolen painting, they may have found something more sinister than they could’ve imagined…

Their hunt soon turns deadly when they learn the enigmatic and dangerous art trafficker named The Collector could be on board. But on a ship full of antiques enthusiasts—plus some unexpected familiar faces—will Freya and Carole be able to discover the Collector’s identity and stop his murderous plans before the ship docks? Or will the killer strike again?

“An intriguingly complex locked-cruise-ship mystery filled with wonderful characters, murdery twists, humor, and fascinating antiquities details, Miller’s The Antique Hunter’s Death on the Red Sea is a page-turning delight from start to finish” (Celeste Connally, author of Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Lord).

Fantastic series

Full of twist and plot turns, this novels spans the underbelly of antique black market. Wonderful sequel.

Delightful Fun

This is a great sequel to a really fun series. I love all the characters and the art & antiques world. It was thrilling to be in Egypt & Petra. The narrator did and exceptional job.

Great characters

Engaging and exciting a fun listen with plot twists to keep me guessing. Good character development looking forward to the next one.

One character’s Southern US accent is almost unbearable

I like the narrator’s British accents. But the Southern US accent for one character is very hard to listen to. I live in the Southeastern US and have never heard an accent like that, except for non-Americans trying to play Southern Americans in movies (the detective in the Glass Onion and Charlize Theron in The Legend of Bagger Vance). I suggest if the character is in the next book that the narrator just go for a neutral American accent.

Fun find!

Glad I took a chance on this series- fun story and characters. Looking forward to more
