Puede un hombre atrapado en el fango de la esclavitud desafiar al destino y reclamar el trono de los dioses?
En el apogeo del Antiguo Egipto, Senenmut es solo un n�mero m�s en las despiadadas canteras de caliza de Turah. Con la espalda marcada por el l�tigo y las manos encallecidas por el fango, su �nico destino parece ser una tumba an�nima en las arenas del desierto. Sin embargo, bajo la costra de sudor y polvo, late la sangre de un linaje que una vez hizo temblar a los reyes.
Todo cambia la noche en que un anciano esclavo le conf�a un secreto enterrado por el tiempo: un amuleto de cornalina con un sello proscrito. No es una baratija; es la prueba de que Senenmut es el �ltimo heredero de la Casa de Ka-mose, la familia m�s rica y poderosa de Egipto, exterminada a�os atr�s en una sangrienta purga palaciega dirigida por el implacable visir Ay.
Una odisea de sangre, oro y justiciaObligado a escapar para salvar su vida, Senenmut emprender� una peligrosa aventura que lo llevar� desde los templos ocultos de Abidos hasta las arenas ardientes del desierto oriental. Cambiar� el mazo de esclavo por la ca�a de escribir, y esta por la lanza de guerra, convirti�ndose en el h�roe de las rutas comerciales y gan�ndose el respeto del ej�rcito.
Pero la riqueza sin poder es solo un sudario de oro. Para reclamar lo que le pertenece, Senenmut deber� infiltrarse en la corte de Tebas, un nido de v�boras donde la traici�n se paga con veneno o con el foso de los cocodilis. All� sellar� una peligrosa alianza con Nefertari, una arist�crata tan ambiciosa como inteligente, junto a quien tejer� una red de sombras para derrocar al visir.
Con el Fara�n moribundo y el imperio al borde de la guerra civil, Senenmut tendr� que tomar la decisi�n definitiva: conformarse con la riqueza robada o dar un paso al frente, desenvainar el bronce y reclamar la corona doble de las Dos Tierras.
Lo que dicen los lectores:"Una ambientaci�n hist�rica impecable que te transporta al instante al olor del Nilo y el calor de las canteras."
"Intriga pol�tica al estilo de los mejores cl�sicos, combinada con una aventura vibrante que no puedes dejar de leer."
"Un viaje del h�roe magistral. Senenmut es un protagonista inolvidable."
Sum�rgete en una novela hist�rica �pica, rigurosamente documentada y cargada de aventura, misterio y traici�n palaciega. Acompa�a al esclavo que desafi� a los dioses para convertirse en Fara�n.
