Title: The Ghost of Akhenaten
First published: November 24, 2003
Description: "Who dares challenge the might of the Priests of Amun?

A group of people are drawn inexorably together, and impelled by forces unknown to travel to Egypt to investigate what happened to the pharaoh Akhenaten who lived more than three thousand years before. They believe he was not only assassinated by the Priests of Amun whom he tried to overthrow during his reign, but that his soul was cursed.

His ghost has been seen in Egypt.

Jack is fighting strange and powerful dreams. Finn is convinced he is a reincarnation of Akhenaten and has a personal interest in denying that the ghost exists. Emma believes she was Akhenaten's youngest daughter in a past life and longs to release her beloved father from the curse. Bernard, a medium, channels the voice of Akhenaten, pleading for help. Eliot won't have any of it and does everything in his power to cast doubt on their beliefs. Mary draws the threads together, describing her own compelling and mysterious encounters with Akhenaten.

Their adventures are not what any of them expect, and have far-reaching consequences in their lives.

The Ghost of Akhenaten is Moyra Caldecott's compelling finale to her acclaimed Egyptian sequence, which also includes Hatshepsut: Daughter of Amun, Akhenaten: Son of the Sun and Tutankhamun and the Daughter of Ra. "
