The Stolen Queen: A Mystery Whodunnit Set in the Met Museum


Listen Later

The Stolen Queen, the newest historical fiction novel by New York Times bestselling author Fiona Davis, publishes today, January 7, and is set in the hallowed halls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. When the Met’s prized Egyptian artifact goes missing, an unlikely female duo—curator and anthropologist Charlotte Cross and eighteen-year-old Annie Jenkins from the Met’s costume department—team up to investigate the theft, unraveling decades old secrets particularly in Charlotte’s own past. Charlotte is an enigmatic figure, and Annie is peppy, indefatigable young woman at the start of her career. Fiona Davis describes The Stolen Queen as "mummies and glamour."

Here at Untapped New York, we're kicking off 2025 with a new podcast episode featuring Fiona in conversation with our founder, Michelle Young whose own narrative non-fiction book The Art Spy: The Extraordinary Untold Tale of WWII Resistance Spy Rose Valland publishes in May.

Other books mentioned in the podcast include Patrick Bringley's All the Beauty in the World, and Lynne Olson's Empress of the Nile
