Lady Evelyn Herbert becomes obsessed with finding Queen Hatshepsut’s secret tomb. Evelyn is the daughter of Lord Carnarvon who discovered the tomb of King Tut. Evelyn risks everything to uncover the truth about Hatshepsut's reign and to keep her artifacts inside Egypt, which is their rightful home. Danger closes in on Evelyn and with political tensions rising she must make an impossible choice: protect her father’s legacy or forge her own.
Daughter of Egypt is the story of two ambitious women who lived three centuries apart. Both were forced to hide who they were during their lifetimes, yet ultimately changed history forever.
I am looking forward to discovering how the lives of these two ladies are similar.
This sounds like a cracking read and I hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI am always eager to check out Marie Benedict's books, and I also love ancient Egypt, so this is one I'm really excited for as well! Hope you love it!
ReplyDeleteI used to be so fascinated with Egypt when I was a teen. Teen me might have loved this one! Hope you do.
