Nearly three million Jews came to America from Eastern Europe between 1880 and the outbreak of World War I. Filled with the hope of life in a new land, most were young, single, uneducated, and unskilled. Many were children or teens. They were, in a sense, unfinished citizens of either the old or the new world.

For untold years, the perfectly preserved mummy had lain forgotten in the dusty basement of Boston’s Crispin Museum. Now its sudden rediscovery by museum staff is both a major coup and an attention-grabbing mystery. Dubbed “Madam X,” the mummy–to all appearances, an ancient Egyptian artifact–seems a ghoulish godsend for the financially struggling institution. But medical examiner Maura Isles soon discovers a macabre message hidden within the corpse–horrifying proof that this “centuries-old” relic is instead a modern-day murder victim.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Keepsake to be better than the print version?
I haven't read the print version but I listened to this in the car and it was easy to follow.
Any additional comments?
The audio would have improved if the reader used different voices for the two women.

On May 13, 1945, 24 American servicemen and WACs boarded a transport plane for a sightseeing trip over “Shangri-La,” a beautiful and mysterious valley deep within the jungle-covered mountains of Dutch New Guinea. Unlike the peaceful Tibetan monks of James Hilton’s best-selling novel Lost Horizon, this Shangri-La was home to spear-carrying tribesmen, warriors rumored to be cannibals. But the pleasure tour became an unforgettable battle for survival when the plane crashed. Miraculously, three passengers pulled through.

Where does Lost in Shangri-La rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
A fascinating look at a piece of history that had been lost. I wish that more of the participants were still alive to see their bravery recognized.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Lost in Shangri-La?
My most memorable moment is when Maggie saw the natives as people and not as savages.
Any additional comments?
I thought the current state of affairs in the valley was very sad. It appears that the natives beliefs have totally been fulfilled and their lives are unimportant to the Indonesian government.
