A goddess stripped of her past. A secret erasing Akhenaten's bloodline.
The Eye of Bastet is a story about how much of ourselves we’re willing to lose to save the people we love. And what’s left of an identity once faith, blood, and survival stop lining up.
All Kefera wants is to forget and pretend. Forget the day her mother, the High Priestess of Bastet, was murdered when guards broke up a forbidden ceremony. Pretend she can live quietly, working in her father's House of Beer, and learn to love the man she is promised to.
But when her younger sister decides to unearth the Eye of Bastet and embrace her legacy as a priestess, Kefera is thrust into a race against time. She must save Maibe from the wrath of Aten's clergy and recover the diadem, the goddess's last talisman to survive Akhenaten's purge.
From Bastet's city to the Sun Disk's capital, where death shadows the royal family, Kefera discovers that finding the Eye is only the beginning. Between the oath she swore to her sister and the trust a frightened princess, Neferneferuaten Tasherit, places in her, every choice pulls her in two directions.
To set the Eye upon Maibe's brow, Kefera will have to betray something sacred.
In the end, it may be herself.
