Hatchepsut, the Pharaoh’s daughter, finds and adopts an abandoned infant when she is still a child herself, and does not understand the enormity of her action.
By rescuing this boy, Hatchepsut finds love in an otherwise loveless existence. He becomes the core of her life and watching him grow into a man of extraordinary ability makes her audacious.
Her ambition for him drives her to seize the throne, becoming the king Egypt needs, so she can raise him to rule the proudest Empire on earth.
But who is this man, and does he have an identity better known beyond the borders of Egypt?
Hatchepsut and Senenmut are well known figures in Egyptian history, and while it has fallen to me to paint the story of their lives where it has been lost, these are people who once lived and breathed.

Summary
My aim in writing this book was to show that the Biblical Moses has been identified in the Egyptian court, the Court of Pharaoh Hatshepsut And he is not an insignificant figure. He is the leading man in the Court and is treated like royalty. Egyptologists have found 26 hard stone statues of him, a thing unheard of for a non royal.
But It is a very human story. The love of a woman for the son she raised. And I am pleased that reviewers have picked up this point.
Recent readers have left the following reviews and comments:
“What is there to say about this remarkable book. Poignant, compelling, strangely relevant in today’s world. A love story, an adventure story, one of history and of power but most of all it’s a human story…The characters are strong, the complexities of the politics akin to something you’d find in Games of Thrones – except this really happened.” Reader, The Book Blogger Review
“Staggeringly brilliant book!! I feel as if I’ve just leapt from my horse after galloping full tilt across Egypt! I'm completely lost for words! I loved absolutely everything about it... And the research that's gone into it is breath taking. Your ability to explain the geography, religious, cosmic and tribal dimensions, the technical side of temple buildings and canal management etc, all without it sounding remotely like a textbook. It's just Phenomenal! I think you should give master classes.” Reader, JB
“Excellent work. A concise, well-written account of Hatshepsut and Senenmut (Moses.) You make a good case for him to be Moses.” Comment by “Archaeologist”on article ‘Has the Biblical Moses been identified in Egyptian records?’ https://www.ancient-origins.net/history-famous-people/moses-0012411
