Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 304pp. ISBN: 0425185818 Publisher: Berkley Publishing Group Pub. Date: August 2002 Edition Desc: REISSUE From the Publisher "A series of grisly slayings ignite passions in Pharoah's Egypt. Is it the work of humans or has the god Anubis come to earth intent on sabotaging peace negotiations with the dreaded Mitanni? Only Amerotke, wise and trusted judge of the powerful female Pharaoh, Hatusu, can sort through the tangle of intrigue that surrounds the killings and discover the truth." "It began in the temple of Anubis. With the hated but humbled Mitanni camped outside Thebes, preparing to prostrate themselves before Pharaoh, few things could be worse for Egypt's bargaining position than a series of sensational murders right in the inner sanctum of its most heavily guarded temple. Except perhaps the daring theft of its most cherished national treasure. Or maybe the mysterious deaths of several Mitanni ambassadors who'd been assured Pharaoh's divine protection..." "Now Amerotke is up to his ears in intrigue. As the body count grows, it becomes apparent that someone - or something - wants his name added to it. But is the jackal-headed god Anubis really stalking his enemies? Or is there a logical explanation? It will take all of Amerotke's powers of reason to find the answer before Egypt's enemies make the strong and seductive Pharaoh ancient history."-BOOK JACKET.
