A darkness lurks within Egypt, demanding the greatest of all sacrifices... Pharaoh Merkhet must commit to the rebuild of Thebes if he is to secure his family's legacy and the support of his citizens. Hard work has never bothered him. He is content, hauling mudbricks alongside his fellow labourers. That's until Merkhet discovers the limp and bloodied body of his first love. Battling an enemy he can't see-or understand-the pharaoh is lost in the absence of his most trusted counsel. When tragedy strikes at the Opet Festival, a mute scribe and a tomb robber become his best chance of stopping Thebans from shunning the Golden Throne. As the shifting shadows tighten their grip on chaos, the citizens' cries drain into the Nile. Merkhet must face his deepest fears if he is to preserve Egypt and their sacred traditions from sinking beneath the desert sands...
