Princess. Priestess. Rebel. Thief.

The kingdom of Khetara is a land divided. The pharaoh is dying, and his enemies are great in number. As rebellion grows and secrets flourish, four strangers must face their destinies.
In the golden capital, Princess Sita is caught in a web of sensuality and deceit, the burden of a treacherous truth weighing heavily on her soul.
At the sacred temple, Neff, a priestess-in-training haunted by prophetic blood-drenched dreams, holds the key to the royal heirs’ fates.
To the south, the flames of rebellion ignite as Rae, a farmer’s daughter, resists the pharaoh’s oppressive rule and inspires an army.
And in the depths of the desert, a tomb robber called Karim stumbles upon a long-buried secret and awakens the monster within . . .
The first book of the Throne of Khetara trilogy.

A bold and opulent fantasy that glimmers with magic and intrigue!
Captivating. A love letter to fans of Egyptian mythology.
Beautifully writtten and a total page-turner.
A brilliant tapestry of an ancient fantasy realm brought to life. This Egyptologist wanted the story to go on and on.
A world of beauty, intrigue, and hard choices.
