Welcome to Litsy!

An antiquities dealer visits Emerson requesting compensation for a forged scarab allegedly sold by David from his grandfather's collection, which never existed. Discreet enquiries reveal that the impersonator has sold fake antiquities to other dealers. Who is trying to vilify David and why?

I haven't read any of the Amelia Peabody books for a couple of years and I'd forgotten how funny Amelia's narrative “voice“ is.

"What is it you find so amusing, my dear?” I inquired.

When I first started on litsy one of the first posts I read was a thread of discussion of how much people loved Amelia Peabody and her mysteries. I immediately started the series and am so glad i did! These books are fantastic. I love all the characters, the setting and the mysteries. The best #blameitonlitsy
