The Mamur Zapt is a great character,

This review is from: The Mark of the Pasha: A Mamur Zapt Mystery (Hardcover)
Michael Pearce has now written many volumes in this series -- each one has been interesting and engaging. His plots are intriguing and the characters very sympathetic. The setting in Egypt in the early part of the century is of historical interest -- with the clash of cultures during British oversight of an Egypt in transition. Pearce has written other series, which are good, but not as good as the Mamur Zapt. Read them all.
