Across the river from the Egyptian capital  however  not all take pleasure in his homecoming.  Reunited with his wife  Hatusu  and his people  Tuthmosis stands before the statue of Amun-Ra  the roar of the crowd and the fanfare of the trumpets ringing in his ears. But within an hour the Pharaoh is dead  and his unfinished tomb ritually polluted by a witch.  The people of Thebes cannot forget the murder and the desecration any more easily than they can forget the frightful omen of wounded doves flying overhead. Rumor runs rife  speculation sweeps the royal city  and Hatusu vows to uncover the truth. With the aid of Amerotke  a respected judge of Thebes  she embarks on a path destined to reveal the great secrets of Egypt.  The Mask of Ra is a compelling and dramatic novel set against the background of Egypts eighteenth dynasty--a time of great change  as warlike Pharaohs fought to control not only the tribes on their western and southern borders  but to bring their subjects firmly under their rule.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44944846356533,"sku":"ByrdShop_0312205600","price":40.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780312205607.jpg?v=1769856166","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-mask-of-ra-ancient-egypt-mysteries","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
