Description

The Last Cut by Michael Pearce In 1908 Cairo, a young woman's body is discovered at the site of a dam under construction. This gruesome find sets off a chain of events as the Mamur Zapt investigates an attempt to blow up a key regulator in the Cairo Barrage. The ceremonial cutting of the dam, known as the Last Cut, has just begun, and the police must navigate the complexities of this high-stakes ritual. As the investigation unfolds, the Mamur Zapt must untangle a web of intrigue that threatens to disrupt the entire event. With the discovery of the young woman's body, it appears that something sinister is at play - but what exactly? The outcome of this delicate balancing act will have far-reaching consequences for the city and its inhabitants. Michael Pearce's gripping mystery weaves together politics, ritual, and deception in a thrilling tale of suspense and intrigue.
