A Mythical Egyptian Fantasy — Robert Hill

During the time of the Pharaohs of Egypt, the goddess Bastet is sent by Ra to prevent the murder of the expectant mother of the next Pharaoh. Ra has foreseen the death of the Great Royal Wife, but the future is clouded as to the identity of the killer. Bastet must discover who will commit the murder, prevent it, and thereby thwart a period of chaos certain to ensue should the future heir be kept from being born. Treachery and deceit lurk around every corner as the goddess of fertility sets about to prevent disaster and death not just of the unborn Pharaoh and his mother, but of an entire civilization.
