Hello from Michigan

Welcome Kelly

Welcome to the group, Kelly. I've just started refreshing my interest in Agatha Christie. Really enjoying her. The mystery / thriller genre is so wide-ranging. I'm sure you'll find many excellent authors, both classics and new.

Welcome Kelly. I love Michigan - when I lived in Chicago we shared a lake and as a youngster I went to camp in Saugatuck every summer. That sounds like an interesting job,

In college I remember being assigned Tey's The Daughter of Time to read for a history class.

Hi, Kelly!

I use to live 2 doors down for the Archaeology museum when I attended school in Ann Arbor. I loved Murder in Mesopotamia and Death on the Nile. The Daughter of Time was also quite good.

Given your twin interests in Archaeology and mystery, I recommend the Amelia Peabody series by Elizabeth Peters. The first in the series is Crocodile on the Sandbank. She really hit her stride with the second, The Curse of the Pharaohs. The author was a Egyptologist trained at the Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago. It's my favorite series.
