The Mamur Zapt & the Return of the Carpet : A Mamur Zapt Mystery Paperback / softback
by Michael Pearce
Paperback / softback
Description
The Mamur Zapt, head of Cairo's CID in the heyday of (the indirect) British rule, focuses on political, not police, matters.
With the bustling new century, the loosening of imperial ties, and the rise of nationalism, his is a busy office.
The attempted assassination of a veteran politician raises the spectre of a major terrorist statement at the capital's principal religious festival where the faithful celebrate the Return of the Holy Carpet from Mecca.
Easily navigating multiple nationalities, Captain Owen, the Welsh incumbent, bolsters the Mamur Zapt's office with the aid of a host of memorable characters.
Starts a 15-book series.
