Ancient Egypt. Land of the Pharaohs. A kingdom built on gold. A legend shattered by greed… Now the Valley of the Kings lies ravaged by war, drained of its lifeblood, as weak men inherit the cherished crown.

He became a full-time writer in 1964 after the successful publication of When the Lion Feeds, and has since written forty one novels, all meticulously researched on his numerous expeditions worldwide.
