Book synopsis

When Nurse Amy Leatheran is hired to care for the beautiful Louise Leidner at a remote archaeological dig in Iraq, she finds a community fraught with unspoken tension. Dr. Leidner is desperate to protect his wife from mysterious 'nervous terrors' that she refuses to fully explain. As the atmospheric pressure of the desert heat and personal rivalries builds to a breaking point, the arrival of Hercule Poirot becomes necessary to unmask a killer in their midst. It soon becomes clear that at Tell Yarimjah, murder is a habit that no one can easily escape.

Download was instant and the file looked great on my phone. Worth far more than what I paid.
