«Le scorpion du Nil» is the historical novel by Pauline Gedge, published by Succès du Livre in 1996 in paperback (426 pages, in French).
Thu grows up on the banks of the Nile, in Aswat, convinced she deserves a greater destiny than marrying a peasant. When the barge of Hui, an aristocrat, healer and seer, stops at the nearby temple, Thu risks everything to know her future. That encounter takes her to the court of Ramesses III, where, as Lady Thu, she discovers the ambition and intrigues of ancient Egypt.
French edition translated from English by Claude Seban; first installment of the Lady of the Reeds series.
Suitable for readers of historical fiction and romance set in ancient Egypt.
