In the cutthroat world of modern archaeology, Dr. Aris Thorne is on the verge of a discovery that will rewrite history—the tomb of a forgotten Ptolemaic queen. Betrayed and left for dead in the suffocating darkness of a collapsing tomb, he closes his eyes, only to awaken in the sun-drenched splendor of ancient Alexandria. No longer Aris, he is now Kallikrates, a royal scribe in the court of the very queen he was seeking. Haunted by fragmented memories of a future he’s already lived, Kallikrates must navigate the treacherous currents of Ptolemaic politics, where whispers of Roman encroachment and deadly court intrigue threaten the very fabric of Egypt. He soon discovers his quest for historical truth has become a desperate fight for survival, and the queen he once saw as a historical figure is now a woman he must protect. As the shadows of his past and present lives intertwine, Kallikrates, the man who once studied history, must now ensure it doesn’t repeat itself in the most brutal of ways, all while unraveling the mystery of how and why he was sent back to this pivotal moment in time.
