Polttavan egyptiläisen auringon alla kuningattaren siluetti kohoaa vaihtuvia hiekkadyynejä vasten-hänen läsnäolonsa on sekä vangitseva että arvoituksellinen, ja hänen kohtalonsa kietoutuu imperiumien kohtaloihin. Aleksandrian varjoisissa saleissa ja Niilin rannoilla avautuu viimeisen suuren Ptolemaioksen hallitsijan elämä: naisen, jonka älykkyys, kunnianhimo ja karisma haastaisivat itse Rooman ja muokkaisivat muinaisen Egyptin historian kulkua. Tämä huolellisesti tutkittu teos pureutuu vallan, perinnön ja juonittelun monimutkaisuuteen, jotka määrittelivät naisfaaraon hallintokauden, jonka legenda on kaikunut vuosisatojen halki. Tarkalla silmällä hovin politiikan vivahteisiin ja valtaistuimen takana piileviin henkilökohtaisiin kamppailuihin kertomus imaisee lukijan maailmaan, jossa Egyptin kuningasperheet navigoivat muuttuvia liittoumia ja jossa jokainen ele saattoi ratkaista voiton ja tuhon välillä.Tämä tarina ei ole pelkästään hallitsijan tekojen kronikka, vaan myös tutkimusmatka sivilisaation risteyskohtaan, jossa egyptiläisen monarkian loisto kohtasi antiikin maailman lakkaamattomat virtaukset. Ajankohtaisiin lähteisiin ja naishallitsijoiden historiaan kohdistuvaan pysyvään kiehtovuuteen pohjautuen syntyvä muotokuva on yhtä aikaa intiimi ja laaja-alainen, tarjoten harvinaisen näkymän egyptiläisen kuningattaren sisäiseen maailmaan, jonka valinnat kaikuivat kauas hänen oman aikansa ulkopuolelle. Tekstin selkeys ja syvyys tekevät siitä olennaisen lukemiston kaikille, jotka ovat kiinnostuneita Egyptin historiallisesta tietokirjallisuudesta, sekä niille, joita kiehtovat muinaisten maailmanjohtajien pysyvät mysteerit.Tämä kirja oli poissa painosta vuosikymmeniä ja on nyt julkaistu uudelleen Alpha Editionsin toimesta. Se on palautettu tämän päivän ja tulevien sukupolvien iloksi. Tämä painos ei ole pelkkä uusintapainos - se on keräilyharvinaisuus ja kulttuuriaarre.
