In ancient Egypt, a forgotten princess must overcome her family's
past and remake history.
The winds of change are blowing through Thebes. A devastating
palace fire has killed the Eighteenth Dynasty's royal family-with
the exception of Nefertari, the niece of the reviled former queen,
Nefertiti. The girl's deceased family has been branded as
heretical, and no one in Egypt will speak their names. Nefertari is
pushed aside, an unimportant princess left to run wild in the
palace. But this changes when she is taken under the wing of the
Pharaoh's aunt, then brought to the Temple of Hathor, where she is
educated in a manner befitting a future queen.
Soon Nefertari catches the eye of the Crown Prince, and despite her
family's history, they fall in love and wish to marry. Yet all of
Egypt opposes this union between the rising star of a new dynasty
and the fading star of an old, heretical one. While political
adversity sets the country on edge, Nefertari becomes the wife of
Ramesses the Great. Destined to be the most powerful Pharaoh in
Egypt, he is also the man who must confront the most famous exodus
in history.
"Nefertari tells her story simply, humbly, and in a clear voice
that will attract readers."-"Romantic Times
