About the book

An enlightened pharaoh falls foul of his conservative court when he attempts to unite the polytheist Egyptians under one God - a course of action that forces factions of both the army and priesthood to turn against him. Undeterred, Akhnaton's vision of a kingdom where people dwell in peace, truth, love and beauty will ultimately destroy him and all those he holds dear.

Regarded as one of her most extraordinary plays, this epic historical drama is unlike anything you have read of Christie's before.

About the Author

Agatha Christie

Born in Torquay in 1890, Agatha Christie began writing during the First World War and wrote over 100 novels, plays and short story collections. She was still writing to great acclaim until her death, and her books have now sold over a billion copies in English and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. Yet Agatha Christie was always a very private person, and though Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple became household names, the Queen of Crime was a complete enigma to all but her closest friends.
