Description

At a peace treaty signing between Egypt and Libya in Thebes, three of Egypt's leading scribes die violently on the Temple forecourt, the victims of a vile poisoning.

To add to the mounting unease, a prosperous merchant and his young wife are found drowned.

Rumours soon sweep the imperial city. The Poisoner of Ptah has returned. It falls to Amerotke, Chief Judge of the Halls of Two Truths, to investigate these hideous crimes.

This story sees the Judge pit his wits against a cunning opponent who seems intent on spreading his death-dealing powders.

Amerotke enters the twilight world of glorious Thebes where life can be so rich and yet death so swift and brutal.
