The powerful and haunting story of Tutankhamun, King of Egypt in the Eighteenth Dynasty, and his wife Ankhesenamun.

Ankhesenamun has never been safe in all her short life.

Daughter of the Pharaoh Akhenaten and the fabled Nefertiti, and married at one time to her father, she has seen too much intrigue, too many deaths...

She is forced to marry Tutankhamun by the powerful General Horemheb at a time of bitter political and religious division - Ankhesenamun is the delicate link between scheming factions.

But she is left vulnerable by the failure of her plans for the sacred egg of Ra and the death of her young husband, and Ankhesenamun is forced into making one last extraordinary and desperate bid for life and happiness...

There cannot be many people alive today who have not heard of Tutankhamun. But not so many know the story of his wife, the young Ankhesenamun, facing dangerous and troubled times. Letters from her have been discovered and preserved, telling a story both moving and tragic, but also of daring, intelligence and courage. This is basically her story - the Daughter of Ra.

Tutankhamun and the Daughter of Ra is part of the 'Egyptian' sequence, which also includes Akhenaten: Son of the Sun and Hatshepsut: Daughter of Amun. Chronologically, Tutankhamun and the Daughter of Ra is the third book of the sequence.

We gamble with the unknown every time a child is conceived. But when donor conception is involved, are we gambling with a loaded dice? Are we risking the very roots of our identity - our genes - in a game of baby roulette?

When Petra Penn Jones and Edward Dunstan meet as students, it is love at first sight. Both are fair-haired and unusually tall, and they share a surprising number of interests. Edward is a basketball player of exeptional ability, and Petra is his most ardent fan. They seem the perfect match.

But they have more in common than they realise. All too soon they are caught up in a bewildering spiral of tragedy and murder. And when, despite the violent opposition of both families, Petra and Edward get married and have two baby girls in quick succession, they realise that their parents warnings should have been heeded...
