For years, Nephthys has been living in the compound of a man that's never loved her. When a god from her past shows up, she's offered a chance to finally leave.
Despite being drawn to Heka and the life he offers her among the other gods, Nephthys finds herself refusing.
Until Seth pushes things too far and she realises she can't stand by and watch any longer.
But escaping is only half the challenge. Once she's back at Karnak, she has to persuade the other gods she can still be trusted.

Nobody does Egyptian mythology like Laura Greenwood and Empress Of The Dark is no exception. It's a wonderful and empowering story about Nephthys finding her courage to leave her husband and pick up her duty in the Hall Of Judgement. As always, the scenes and descriptions are vibrant and I can really picture what it's like underneath the hot sun and sandy deserts. The new relationship Greenwood paints for Nephthys is with someone who encourages and respects her and I was rooting for the characters all the way. I also think the end deserves a special mention because it was perfect and everything I wanted for Nephthys. A cathartic and inspiring read that has me waiting impatiently for the next one. - Arizona Tape, USA Today Bestselling Author
