about this book: Silence in the Stone is the final of four installments of my debut series, The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles. The series covers the Ancient Egyptian New Kingdom, specifically chronicling the reigns of Akhenaten, Smenkare, Neferneferuaten, Tutankhamun, and Ay, whom were all erased by Ay's successor, Horemheb…hence, the series title, The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles. Silence in the Stone covers Ay and Horemheb's reigns and the title for this installment has multiple meanings, some of which are buried in the book, so I will let each reader uncover the meanings as they dive into the story. The title meanings are also reflected in the cover's elements.

I spent a lot of time researching this time period and crafting and outlining before I actually starting writing the series. I find the Amarna period fascinating and loved crafting this story that fit within the historical evidences that have survived to today. Silence in the Stone touched my heart the most out of the series and hope you feel the same. The story deals with political drama, love after loss, finding inner-peace, different forms of strength, and love of country versus love of self: all themes which flood our day to day lives that we experience today that those living 3000 years ago might have experienced as well.

I hope each reader finds meaning, enjoyment, thrills and tears in this book and looks forward to the Prequel and Complement Collections!
