About the book

Thebes, in the eighth year of the reign. Sati-Hapy has a title, a son and a door that closes, and a princess of Naharin arrives at the same quay she was landed on, with a treaty behind her and three hundred and seventeen people in her train. In a schoolroom a junior scribe copies a king-list with twenty-two years missing from it, and nobody will say what the years were. Sati begins to hunt a woman the state has spent two generations unwriting, because the thing she wants has been done exactly once and the proof was chiselled off the walls. The most powerful woman in Egypt is dying, and knows why it was done.
