About the Book

Beloved Lotus is a historical novel of perilous passion, greed and fatal betrayal during the reign of the legendary female Pharaoh Hatshepsut.

She rises to a position of power as a sacred virgin to the Pharaoh Thutmose II, where she gets caught up in a sexual indiscretion that results in the birth of the next pharaoh. The novel lifts the veil to the mysteries of the netherworld where a difficult navigation is required before reaching eternal bliss.
