Used book – *The Mask of Ra* by Paul Doherty

Thutmose II is dead! Could a viper's bite have been enough to fell the great pharaoh? Queen Hatshepsut seems to doubt it... And when grave robberies are perpetrated, she orders the supreme judge Amerotke to solve the case as quickly as possible. For the struggle for succession to the throne has begun and Thebes threatens to buckle under a grim shadow.

Following the trail of Ra's mask, this first investigation by Judge Amerotke plunges us into the incandescent heart of ancient Egypt.
