Grief and power were always going to go hand in hand for the heir to the Empire, but that doesn't mean Iset is prepared.

When Iset discovers her father is sick, she has to come to terms with exactly what that means, including the possibility that she'll be ruling an empire much sooner than she expected to be.

After the worst news she can imagine, Iset isn't sure she has what it takes to organise mummification, and funerals, as well as juggle the politics of becoming the new Pharaoh.

But with her Sekhmet Blessed bodyguard by her side, perhaps she stands a chance.
