✦ Synopsis


It is Egypt in 2000 BC, where death gives meaning to life. At the foot of a cliff lies the broken, twisted body of Nofret, concubine to a ka-priest. Young, beautiful, and venomous, most agree that it was fateβ€”she deserved to die like a snake!

But at her father's house on the banks of the Nile, the priest's daughter Renisenb believes that the woman's death is suspicious. Increasingly, she becomes convinced that the source of evil lurks within their householdβ€”and watches helplessly as the family's passions explode in murder. . . .

In this exciting--and unusual--mystery set in ancient Egypt, sudden death is waiting to strike someone in a landowner's large household.
