Description
xA band of mercenaries fight deadly enemies and solve ancient riddles to plunder the tomb of Egypt's robber pharaoh in this break-neck historical adventure-thriller.
701 BCE. Assyria lays siege to Jerusalem, last stronghold of the Judeans.
In an audacious raid, a band of Kushite mercenaries-the Desert Mice-help force the Assyrians back from the gates of Jerusalem. But when a greedy general cheats them of their payment, the mercenaries must turn to plundering the dead: a fabled tyrant and his long-lost tomb.
In crossing an ancient pharaoh, the mercenaries will befoul themselves in an Egyptian power struggle and draw the gaze of a wrathful foreign king. Pursued by scheming nobles and a malevolent torturer, the Desert Mice set sail down the Nile-toward the Valley of the Kings.
Thomas Krug lives in Schwenksville, Pennsylvania. He studied newswriting at the University of Scranton, only to quickly realize the futility of a career in the press, instead choosing to devote his writing skills to novels. When not whittling away at manuscripts, he can be found gluing together model tanks (but more often his fingers) while he listens to history podcasts. He previously saw service in Afghanistan as an officer in the United States Army.
