In ancient Egypt, a young woman named Neferat served in the Temple of Isis. Curious. Ambitious. Different.
She wanted to be more than a servant of the gods — and found a way to become just that. A path so dangerous that her name was chiselled from every stone, erased from every scroll, struck from the memory of history.
As if she had never existed.
In the present day, British archaeologist Edward Blackwood digs in the Egyptian desert, searching for answers. The locals warn him. The legends speak of a curse. But Edward follows the trail of a woman who should not exist — and finds more than he ever bargained for.
Because some secrets don't stay buried.
And some shadows are just waiting for the right light.
The series begins with Priestess of Darkness — Neferat's story, before she became legend.
