If you've ever wondered about the hidden passage under the Sphinx, Rai Aren and Tavius E. give you a marvelous interpretation filled with suspense and intrigue in their mystery Secret of the Sands.Throughout the Secret of the Sands, readers are treated to the underlying knowledge of the authors about ancient Egypt, especially through their intimate descriptions of the Sphinx.  The transitions between time periods and characters heightens the tension of the novel. Readers discover the intrigue of ancient Egyptian life as the modern day characters are working to decipher the clues they have found. I found myself mentally pushing the modern day characters to work harder to discover what I had just found out.It is commonly thought that the Sphinx is older than 5000 years. By setting Secret of the Sands in the year 10,000 BC, the authors have taken advantage of this field of thought to give readers their glimpse into what must have been a magnificent time period. Highly recommended for mystery lovers and those lovers of anything Egyptian like myself. I can't wait for the next book in this series.Cheryl Carpinelloauthor ofGuinevere: On the Eve of Legend[...]
