Despite the combined efforts of his generals who are searching, in vain, for the culprit, despite daily prayers and the devoted care of the queen and the seven priestesses of the goddess Hathor, there is only a gradual decline in its life force. But the most mysterious of the priestesses, the one who haunts the nights of young Iker the scribe, has an idea: to save the 'Tree of Life', a new pyramid must be built at Dachur, dedicated to Osiris. Sesostris agrees, and work is set to begin. Meanwhile conspirators are working behind the scenes to depose the Pharaoh and his life is in danger from all sides. Second part of the Mysteries of Osiris series..* This is a NEAR FINE first edition copy with minimal shelf wear and very slight paper colouration reducing it to VG++*
