It is 526 B.C. and the empire of the Pharaohs is dying, crushed by the weight of its own antiquity. Decay riddles its cities, infects its aristocracy, and weakens its armies. While across the expanse of Sinai, like jackals drawn to carrion, the forces of the King of Persia watch and wait. Leading the fight to preserve the soul of Egypt is Hasdrabal Barca, Pharaohs deadliest killer. Possessed of a rage few men can fathom and fewer can withstand, Barca struggles each day to preserve the last sliver of his humanity. But, when one of Egypts most celebrated generals, a Greek mercenary called Phan

From the author of the international bestseller Tully comes an epic tale of passion, betrayal, and survival in World War II Russia. Leningrad, 1941: The European war seems far away in this city of fallen grandeur, where splendid palaces and stately boulevards speak of a different age, when the city was known as St. Petersburg. Now two sisters, Tatiana and Dasha Metanov, live in a cramped apartment, sharing one room with their brother and parents.

It is 1450 BC and Milo Drakos, a high Minoan (Cretan) official, is sent to evaluate and improve the well-traveled but dangerous 9,000-mile Trans-Atlantic Minoan trading route between the 5,000 ancient copper mines in Northern Michigan and the critically copper-short Mediterranean. Milo?s sweeping journal depicts his epic adventures and romances during his trek from Crete to Iberia, to Dublin, across the North Atlantic and on to the mines in Michigan?s Upper Peninsula. The copper route he follows involves native Indian miners and their canoes, early Northman trading ships and the Minoan Merchan
