The Treachery of Sisters

Gail Combs Oglesby

48 BC-the Ptolemy empire is in turmoil as Cleopatra has taken up with Julius Caesar and welcomed the Roman interlopers into Egypt to ensure her place as Pharaoh. Arsinoe, her 14-year-old younger half-sister is determined to take the throne from her, and to chase the Romans...back to Rome. Can this mere girl take on the powerful Caesar and unseat Cleopatra? Or is her effort doomed from the start serving only to hasten her journey to the River Styx and through the underworld that lies beyond.
