Feather of Ma’at

**Finalist – 2024 Chaucer Award for Early Historical Fiction**

A queen on trial. A mother pushed to desperation. A soul weighed by the gods.

Murdered and summoned before the gods of the Egyptian Underworld, Queen Nefertiti must prove her life upheld the sacred balance of Ma’at—or be erased into oblivion. As her heart is weighed, she relives the moments that defined her fate: being chosen by the gods, trapped in a forced political marriage to the heretic Pharaoh Akhenaten, and ruling from the shadows as Egypt descended into religious chaos.
