Bestselling novelist Marie Benedict shares a sweeping tale of two ambitious women who lived centuries apart. In the 1920s, archeologist Lord Carnarvon made headlines around the world with the discovery of the treasure-filled tomb of the boy Pharaoh Tutankhamun. But behind it all stood his daughter Lady Evelyn Herbert, whose daring spirit made the momentous find possible. Nearly 3,000 years earlier, another woman defied the expectations of her time: Hatshepsut, Egypt’s lost pharaoh. When Evelyn becomes obsessed with finding Hatshepsut’s secret tomb, she risks everything to uncover the truth about her reign.
