Prince Khaemwaset, fourth son of the famous Ramses the Great, is wealthy and influential, respected throughout Egypt as one of the greatest scholars, respected for his knowledge of medicine and his powerful magic and revered as the country's foremost scholar and restorer of monuments. But he has a secret desire. He dreams of finding the mysterious Scroll of Thoth, believed to grant its owner immortality. Searching among the burial ruins on the high plain of Saqqara, Khaemwaset reaches out to grasp his dream, repeating the arcane words of the parchment and confident of his ability to control the dark forces he may have unleashed. Soon afterward, the exotic noblewoman Tbubui arrives in Memphis. Learned, beautiful and charismatic, she becomes a frequent guest at Khaemwaset's home, enthralling the entire household - but as she insinuates herself her demands become excessive and her ambitions clear...and Khaemwaset relaises just what he has unleashed... Released in Canada as The Scroll of Saqqara.
