This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

A captivating treasure of a novel about Clemmie, a young Victorian Egyptologist, and her entanglement with the legend of the goddess, Nephthys.

'Brilliant... I loved it.' Santa Montefiore

SISTER. RIVAL. PROTECTOR.

Victorian Egyptologist Clemmie's dark talents have torn her family apart. Now she has one chance to atone for the past.

Quiet and reserved, Clemmie is happy in the background. Although her parents may overlook her talents, her ability to read hieroglyphs makes her invaluable at the Egyptian relic parties which have made her father the toast of Victorian society.

But at one such party, the words Clemmie interprets from an unusual amulet strike fear into her heart. The beautiful and dangerous glyphs she holds in her hands will change her life forever.

Five years later, Clemmie arrives in Egypt on a mission to save what remains of her family. The childhood game she used to play about the immortal sisters, Isis and Nephthys, has taken on a devastating resonance and it is only by following Nephthys' story that she can undo the mistakes of the past.
