The Bride of the Nile — Volume 03
In the shadow of the Amarna Revolution, where Pharaoh Akhenaten has turned Egypt upside down with his devotion to the single sun god Aten, a woman named Paula finds her heart torn between two men. Hiram, her faithful servant, carries a love so quiet it might break you. Orion, charismatic and dangerous, moves through the world like a blade wrapped in silk. As if matters of the heart weren't torment enough, a court of justice convenes and the proceedings threaten to unravel everything Paula holds dear. The household strains. Secrets surface. Betrayal simmers beneath the golden Egyptian sun like a cobra in the reeds. Ebers, who dug up Egypt's past for a living, populates these pages with the kind of people who lived and lied and loved three thousand years ago, reminding us that the ancient world was never as foreign as we imagine. This is Volume Three of a sweeping saga where passion and politics intertwine like papyrus stalks by the Nile, and where one woman's choice may determine not just her own fate, but the fate of those around her.
