Description
This gripping historical investigation examines the short life and mysterious death of King Tutankhamun, who ascended Egypt’s throne as a child amid palace rivalries, political tension, and competing ambitions. Interweaving the pharaoh’s story with Howard Carter’s decades-long search for his hidden tomb, the narrative follows the discovery that brought Tut’s forgotten legacy back into the world. Drawing on archaeological records, forensic evidence, historical accounts, and Carter’s own files, the authors reassess the clues surrounding the young king’s fate. The result is a vivid true-crime exploration of power, betrayal, ambition, and one of history’s most enduring mysteries.
