Murder...Mystery.....Magic and Mummies. In the second book of The Shadow Saga, Pharaoh Akhenaten's new city of Akhet-Aten has flourished for three years. However, not all is as blissful as it seems. The banished Amun priests have bided their time, eager to take back their lost power. The new battle between light and dark begins with the murder of the Queen Mother. If the demands of the murderers are not met, they vow--in direct violation of civil and spiritual law--to mummify her. Merit-Aten, the grief-stricken daughter of the Pharaoh, is determined to lay Queen Ti-Yee to rest under the loving rays of the Aten. But first she must face her own fears and undergo a series of perilous initiations. She vows to do whatever it takes to bring her grandmother home, even if she witnesses a distorted ritual, and unearths a terrible secret that makes her fear not only for her grandmother's body but also for her grandmother's soul. Merit-Aten's mission takes on a new urgency. But is she strong enough to undertake the dangerous journey into the den of the Amunites? If she fails, her grandmother's soul will be condemned to walk with the Shadow People for all eternity. When Death comes calling.....How would you answer?
