When Lucy Lawrence travels to Egypt with a dashing French archaeologist, she thinks she's leaving her troubled past behind. But in the shadow of the pyramids, death and deception await... Egypt, 1887. After scandals in London, young widow Lucy Lawrence seeks a fresh start in Cairo, agreeing to fund an archaeological dig led by the charismatic Frenchman Armand Moreau. Enticed by Egypt's ancient mysteries, Lucy dreams of making a spectacular discovery. But her hopes turn to dread when Moreau is found brutally murdered in the Great Pyramid. The only clue is the ceremonial dagger buried in his heart - a relic of Moreau's own past. As mysterious thefts plague the expedition, Lucy becomes ensnared in a plot reaching from lost desert tombs to Cairo's stylish avenues. With Phineas Stone far away in London, Lucy must rely on her own wits to uncover the truth behind Moreau's death. Pitted against corrupt officials, rival archaeologists, and a foe determined to silence her, can Lucy unmask the killer... or will she become the next unlucky victim herself? An unputdownable historical mystery blending mystery, romance and murder, Footprints in the Sand is the second novel in the bestselling Lucy Lawrence Mystery series.
Pam Lecky is an Irish historical crime and mystery author. Having acquired a love of reading crime and historical fiction from her father at a very young age, she proceeded to gobble books until one day she realised she might like to write one. Pam lives in North County Dublin, close to the sea, sharing her office (whether she likes it or not!) with two cats, Bertie (Bertie Wooster) and Pip (Pippin the hobbit, of course), and a mad doggie PA who goes by the name of Molly (who is, Pam is convinced, part kangaroo!). Her debut novel, The Bowes Inheritance, was awarded the B.R.A.G Medallion; shortlisted for the Carousel Aware Prize 2016; and longlisted for the Historical Novel Society 2016 Indie Award. She has two popular series; The Lucy Lawrence Mysteries featuring a Victorian amateur sleuth, and the Sarah Gillespie WW2 series. Pam trained as a horticulturist and built a show garden at the Bloom Garden Festival in Dublin in 2008. When not writing, you can find her in her garden or walking the beach. She is a member of The Historical Novel Society, The Crime Writers' Association and The Society of Authors. She is represented by Thérèse Coen, at Susanna Lea Associates, London.
