Publisher Description

A PRICELESS HEIRLOOM. A FURIOUS QUEEN. A RACE TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH BEFORE CHAOS REIGNS.

When Queen Tiye's treasured earring vanishes from the heart of Pharaoh Amenhotep III's palace, suspicion and fear ripple through the royal court. The earring is no mere ornament—it's the last link to her beloved father, and her fury threatens to unravel the peace of the palace.

With tensions rising and the Pharaoh desperate to calm his queen, he turns to Egypt's High Seer, Kiya, and High Priest Haremakhet. But even the gods seem silent.

Can Kiya untangle the web of secrets, and hidden motives in time to restore order before royal wrath turns deadly?

A Theft is a fast-paced short story set in the richly imagined world of House of Scarabs. At just 32 pages, it's a bite-sized tale packed with divine mysteries and palace intrigue.
