In the bustling heart of ancient Egypt, two daring young women launch a humble medical dispensary—only to have their first patient collapse at their feet, muttering cryptic last words with his dying breath.
When the victim turns out to be a florist of Amen, Neferet and Bener-ib can’t ignore the call of justice—especially when their spirited teenage apprentice, a sleuth in the making, is eager to crack the case. But solving a murder in a world where women are expected to heal, not hunt killers, proves far more dangerous than they ever imagined.
Caught between their skeptical families, a jealous rival with dark intentions, and whispers from the restless ba of the dead, the trio must navigate secrets, shadows, and sacred truths. What begins as a quest for justice becomes a race to survive in a land where even the gods might be watching.
