FWIW given availability issues, I'm still going to second
The Englishman's Cameo, since it sounds so exactly my sort of thing - historical mystery with great background in unusual place/time - not that I don't love ancient Rome, or ancient Egypt, or ancient England, but nice to have a bit of change from time to time.
And worth noting that not only is it cheap in the UK per @issybird, but there is an omnibus of three titles in the series for the same price (£3.99) as this one individually:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Muzaffar-Ja...dp/B00CXUERAY/ . Which, of course, I have just now bought, adding again, as others have mentioned, to my already huge TBR pile.
And, just for fun, since it says it's pub by Hachette India, I took a look in the Kobo India store and
Cameo is Rs 224, which my friendly currency converter says is about US $3.12 - also pretty cheap, and less than the £3.99 in the UK. Sadly the omnibus is Rs 433 (about US $6.05) though, so if you want that, you're still better off in the UK. Link for
Cameo (make sure you are in the India store):
