Nefertiti

Nefertiti and her younger sister, Mutnodjmet, have been raised in a powerful family that has provided wives to the rulers of Egypt for centuries. Ambitious, charismatic, and beautiful, Nefertiti is destined to marry Amunhotep, an unstable young pharaoh. It is hoped by all that her strong personality will temper the young Amunhotep's heretical desire to forsake Egypt's ancient gods, overthrow the priests of Amun, and introduce a new sun god for all to worship. From the moment of her arrival in Thebes, Nefertiti is beloved by the people. Her charisma is matched only by her husband's perceived grandeur. Nefertiti strives to produce an heir, while political machinations threaten their reign. Her sister Mutnodjmet, who seeks a quiet life and love, must navigate loyalty, family duty, and her own desires amidst the political unrest and religious conflicts of ancient Egypt.
