Book Summary:

Mara, a young teenage girl in Ancient Egypt, knew nothing but slavery. That is, until a stranger offers her a dangerous bargain in exchange for her freedom. On her journey to freedom, she meets another handsome stranger who offers her another bargain, placing her on opposite sides of a political game as a double spy.

Can she survive her time in the Egyptian palaces as a double spy? Or will one of her masters discover her secret before her time is up? And what will she do when she finds herself falling for one of her masters?

Reviewer Comments:

Mara, Daughter of the Nile is a fun, historically accurate romance for children and adults alike.

Because the story takes place in Ancient Egypt, there’s frequent mention of the Egyptian gods, even using them as the narrator for part of the story.
