Paul Doherty
Ancient Egypt, Fiction, Crime & mystery, Historical adventure, Historical fiction, Regional & national history, Ancient history: to c 500 CE
The second in the stirring and enthralling series set in Ancient Egypt and featuring Judge Amerotke
After the death of her husband Pharoh Tuthmosis II, Hatusu has confounded her critics by winning a great battle against the Mitanni. Aided by her lover, Senenmut, she is determined that all sections of Egyptian society should accept her as the first Pharaoh-Queen of Egypt - an acceptance that needs the favour and support of the priests. When a spate of killings takes place in the Divine Temple of Horus, the naturally superstitious priests interpret this as a sign of the Gods' disapproval of Hatusu's rule of Egypt. The royal city turns once again to respected judge Amerotke to find the truth.
