I've been exploring the world of ebooks on the kindle recently. I found this one free of charge on amazon.com and gave it a try. It was free, it had a title that caught my eye, best of all it described itself as a mystery/comedy novel. It sounded promising.
Sadly it contain neither mystery nor comedy. This book demonstrates some of the pitfalls with self published ebooks. It has been written with great enthusiasm, little skill and apparently no editing. The plot is both ludicrous and wayward. The story wanders about with no consistency, the characters are one dimensional. During chapters 7 to 10 a drugs bust and trial is inserted to allow the author to express his views on medical marijuana. That the sequence from DEA raid to the end of the trial appears to take less than a week and contains nothing that resembles accurate courtroom proceedings does not seem to bother the author, neither does the fact that the sequence has nothing to do with the rest of the book. He has created a soapbox and will use it. The rest of the book is as bad if not worse. Particularly annoying are the regular call backs to previous books in the series. I would rather read something pertinent to the story I'm currently wading through, rather than trailers for previous episodes. All in all this is one novel that can safely be left o your reject pile.
Apparently this is the seventeenth book in this particular series and the author's website boasts of his writing 21 books in just three years. One can only wonder what he might have achieved if he had focused on quality rather than quantity.

Lady Justice and the Pharaoh's Curse by Robert Thornill
5 Stars
An ancient Egyptian artifact (Anubis) is stolen. Soon people end up dead in mysterious ways. Some say that the "Pharaoh's Curse" is the reason behind these murders and won't be lifted until the items are returned to the Pharaoh's tomb. Walt and Ox are on the case. Meanwhile, Walt is at the trial of a suspect who is arrested for growing and using medicinal marijuana.
Another Hit By Robert Thornhill, some fascinating facts of ancient Egypt/Pharaohs and interesting photos added to the delight of this read. Also the controversial subject of legalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes really leaves you thinking. Another fantastic installment in the Lady Justice Series.

Curses or coincidences? Whichever one, it doesn't ultimately matter when murder after murder pile up under the watch of Officer Walt Williams and his partner, Ox Wilson. What does matter to his boss, Captain Short, is that they stop them and find out who's killing who, and why. Walt thinks back to the curse that almost killed him and his new bride, Maggie, in Hawaii (Lady Justice Gets Lei'd) and knows that dead is dead, no matter the reason! This time, it also almost lands him and Ox in prison for the dastardly deeds, as they are near-perfectly framed by the killers. Will Lady Justice come to their rescue?
When the touring exhibit, "Discovery of King Tut", a recreation of the opening of the tomb of the Egyptian boy King Tutankhamun by Howard Carter in 1922, selected Kansas City, MO's Union Station as its premiere location for North America after touring Europe since 2008, it was widely advertised as being a replica, the original artifacts remaining under glass in a museum in Cairo. However, in Thornhill's story, a relative of the artisan that created the artificial Anubis who guarded the tomb, actually had the dog's cavity filled with rare and precious gems and metals. What follows is the mayhem created from the lust for riches.
Thornhill leads us along a twisting path of murders and deceptions by those who didn't start out innately evil, but who fall victim to sin of greed. When all is done, the reader has to wonder, was it the curse of the pharaoh's tomb extended to modern-day Kansas City, or just the natural playing out of man's struggle to remain honest when faced with so much wealth.
As usual, Thornhill does a good job of integrating his cast of seniors willing to help him catch the bad guys, corny jokes by Jerry the Joker, and some word pictures of Bernice that disturb Walt and probably the reader. It's topical, possible, and humorous...all the ingredients of a decent mystery cozy. If you are a fan of Thornhill, then this newest addition to his collection will please you. Grab a glass of something cold, sit out on the deck in the warm sun, and enjoy an afternoon reading Walt's latest adventure!

Another winner!
Another winner!
I love this series. The characters are fictional, but real to the reader. I enjoy the humor, but more than anything I like the tackling of some hard and relative issues. The cast of this over the hill gang separately and together are as quirky as all get out - in other words are human. They each have their own strengths and weaknesses. We all know a some one like Jerry, who has a joke in every situation. Or someone as irascible and determined as Mary. It's always an adventure seeing what this group gets into. As Walt says near they end of the book they are like a family, maybe dysfunctional, but always there for each other, and as I read of their exploits, they feel kind of like family to me. I have found that some series kind of lose their way after several books. I definitely don't think this one does. Each book is a home run and I hope to be reading them for a long time to come. A big thanks to Mr Thornhill for my enjoyable evening reading this book.

I got this book as a free download and it was another winner in the Lady Justice Series. Walt and Ox and the gang are at it again and they stumble from one adventure into the next, there never is a dull moment in the book and as usual it is laced with humor and action. Once I start one of Robert Thornhill books I have a hard time putting it down, I enjoy all the characters so much and I especially like that they are all older and yet still manage to have fun and get into trouble, so if you have not yet discovered the Series you better get started.

An Egyptian curse in Kansas City? Only the imagination of Bob Thornhill could come up with this one. Mummies, hookers and our ever loving band of frolicsome characters take Walt and Ox on a sinister who-done-it adventure ride.
Lady Justice and the Pharaoh's Curse is a great get-away read, especially if you're vacationing in Kansas City! That's the best thing about the Lady Justice Series--the locations are real, as are many of the events depicted in these books, making this a fantastic destination series for any book club looking for a fun summer excursion.

Hands down one of the worst books I have ever read. It was neither particularly funny nor mysterious, and quite frankly, half the book is a repetition of either former books or events that happened earlier on in this book. There are a couple of chapters about a court case which have nothing to do with the story whatsoever, and I'm pretty sure I have read better writing assignments back in school. Then again, I suppose you can't ask for much in a free book, but I certainly wouldn't recommend this series to anyone I know.

LADY JUSTICE AND THE PHARAOH'S CURSE by Robert Thornhill
A replica of an artifact has been stolen from the Egyptian Exhibit in the Kansas City, MO Museum. Why has an artifact that is a fake been stolen? The more that Detective Walt Williams and his partner Ox investigate deeper into this case the more bizarre the murders become of each new victim. What is the motive behind each of these murders? Is it the curse of the Anubias or is it human greed?

Another great addition to the Lady Justice series. There was some Egyptian history on the curse of King Tut's tomb with pictures from an exhibit. Good mystery and suspense!
The author also touched on the issue of medical marijuana which I found interesting.

A good who done it for readers of all ages. I'll send it to my 91 year old Mom. Keeps interest without foul language or excess violence. Enjoyed the characters and will try another by Mr Thornhill.

“Lady Justice and the Pharaoh’s Curse” by Robert Thornhill offers another excellent entry to the “Lady Justice” series of comedic mysteries.
Walt, Ox and the whole gang are back to help resolve a growing number of unusual murders, with an apparent connection to a theft from the travelling “King Tut” exhibit on loan from Egypt. When Walt and Ox are both arrested for one of the murders, things get really dicey.
Whoever set up the dynamic duo seemed to cover every base, with all the evidence pointing directly to the pair. Their future was in the hands of a single defense attorney, but she was very good at her job; was she good enough?
Historical facts are liberally sprinkled throughout this book, as is generally the case with Thornhill’s work. “Pharaoh’s Curse” includes a nice bonus: a link to relevant and fascinating information about the boy king. Don’t skip the link.
“Lady Justice and the Pharaoh’s Curse” is his latest release, but it seems each successive story is better than the previous stories. I don’t know how he could get any better than he already was, but he must have found a way.
“Pharaoh’s Curse” is a great story on several levels. The comedic factor is witty and befitting the various characters involved. The murder mystery is well established, well written, and very deeply cloaked in a well-designed mesh of convoluted clues.
The police procedural aspect of the story is reasonable and quite believable. Finally, the historically accurate bits are fascinating and add punch to the story. Thornhill’s “Lady Justice” series was great to begin with, but each successive episode makes the series even better than before.
You won’t want to miss “The Pharaoh’s Curse”.

Read this book on the basis of my husband's recommendation, who found it an entertaining and fast read and gave it a 5 star rating (on Amazon). In Goodreads, a 5 star rating translates to "it was amazing". I don't think so....Mr. Thornhill apparently knocks these out fairly quickly; yes, it's a series. Sorry, Mr. Thornhill, but you really MUST proofread, and/or get someone to edit out all the problems, including format. I'm not terribly interested in a senior's love life (I am one and hope this is not your target audience), and the transgression from the story plot to something totally unrelated had me completely mystified. I kept waiting for it to tie in with the original plot. It never did...huh? Then what was it doing there (as a long-winded intro to your attorney)? A senior soapbox moment? While he did tie up the loose ends, it was a little too far out there. Not all stories about King Tut can cash in. Glad we got this as a free download.

When an ancient Egyptian artifact is stolen, people soon are winding up dead in mysterious ways. Some believe that its the Pharaoh's curse behind these murders and it won't end until the items are returned to the Pharoah's tomb. Walt and Ox are on the case. Meanwhile Walt is at the trail of the suspect who was arrested for growing and using Marijuana. A fascinating read with some fascinating facts about Ancient Egypt/ Pharaoh's plus interesting photos. Also the controversial subject of legalizing marijuana for medicinal purposes it really makes you think. I love all Roberts books they each stand alone or can be read as a series.

Another hit by Robert Thornhill in the Lady Justice series. Walt and the gang never fail to amaze me. So many twists and turns and what a surprise ending. There are plots within plots and never a dull moment.
An artifact is stolen from the King Tut exhibit. They say there is a curse on the Anubis, the stolen treasure. Bodies start dropping and people are starting to believe in the curse. There is also the controversy about legalizing drugs for medicinal purposes. So curl up with the book and something to drink and find out if the curse is real and can Lady Justice come out on top once again?

Another good story
Another great installment of the Lady Justice mysteries. I was thrilled with the subjects of these mysteries. I really wonder if any one person or group of people have the right to make decisions about other people's medical choices, especially when the decisions can't hurt anyone else.

I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
I'm not entirely sure if this book is advocating for the use of medical marijuana or if it's about a supposed curse put down around Egyptian mummies and items. I say this because the author takes out a section of the book to dedicate to a case that has nothing to do with the plot of the book to put a drugs bust and the subsequent trial (which takes about a week in the book, and months in real life). Truthfully, I zoned out at this point and didn't find much else of interest in the book.
Every time a character is introduced, there is a paragraph worth of exposition about the said character, linking them back to a previous book, which sounds more like an advert for the other books than anything actually helpful to the current book. Maybe this is because there appears to be a high proportion of people who do not read this series in order (I certainly haven't read them all in the correct chronological order) and as such. they have to be aware of who the characters are.
The plot itself (other than the random drug trial) was pretty predictable and the humour is quickly becoming more crass. I'm so tired of hearing about senior citizen's sex lives.

This was a quick, interesting, enjoyable read. I enjoyed Thornhill's imagery and intelligent, productive senior citizens as the main characters. However, this book was not without flaws. The main characters isn't introduced by name until the last sentence. I had to figure that out on my own. As other reviewers have mentioned, there was a halt to the story when another unrelated case & trial took up several chapters. It didn't bother me because I thought transition was explained. But I did think the trial happened awfully fast after the arrest and there were several errors during the trial that were unrealistic. There were also some typos that should have been caught in the editing process. But the story and mystery itself kept my attention throughout.
I wish I would have known this was part of series before I started because I think it would helped to read prior books first. Overall, I thought it was good enough to check out some of the earlier books.

Justice Won
Walt and his partner, Ox are detectives who got assigned to a case involving the Egyptian Anubis, an old ancient guard of the King Tut's tomb.
Many unsolved deaths occur that give you a very suspense-filled story about Egyptian curses during the museum's King Tut exhibit.
Combined with laugh out loud humor throughout the book, suspense creating intense scenes, and true partner friendship make an interesting read.

This is the first of the Lady Justice series I've read, & as usual, I find I've picked up in the middle of the series, so all the references to Walt & Maggie's mishaps in Hawaii kind of threw me off. However, it's a real romp, entertaining & a quick, easy read. It's all about King Tut's curse, stolen gems, & homicides in NYC because of it.
