The Last Cut

In this classic mystery from Michael Pearce`s award-winning series, set in the Egypt of the 1900s, the Mamur Zapt investigates the discovery of a young woman`s body at the site of a dam. Cairo, 1908. When an attempt is made to blow up a key regulator in the Cairo Barrage, the Mamur Zapt, British head of Cairo`s secret police, is called in to investigate. To make matters worse, the ceremonial cutting of a dam always requires careful policing, especially on this occasion as it is going to be the Last Cut. Which means the discovery of a young woman`s body at the site of the dam is extremely embarrassing. Is this the traditional ritual sacrifice? Or something more sinister?
