Publisher's Synopsis
Kheti, once an Officer in Pharaoh's army, has returned from the wars wounded and reduced to scraping out a living for his family by fishing at night. One black midnight, exhausted, near despair, he cries out for help to the Gods of Egypt.When the answer to his prayer comes hurtling out of the midnight sky to crash into the Nile, swamping his boat and scattering his meager catch, the assistance of the gods appears to be a curse rather than a blessing.But appearances can be deceiving, as Kheti is about to learn.
