Cleopatra's Amulet - Lindsay Galvin

Twelve-year-old Cleopatra has led a charmed life as princess of
Egypt, and the pharaoh’s favourite daughter.

But when her father is kidnapped and she is forced into exile,
she must investigate who wants the throne enough to kill for it.

A precious amulet and an enchanted board game summon the animal
gods of Egypt, but are they friend or foe?

Cleopatra, her cat Bastet, and a Roman slave boy must race through
a world of gods and monsters to discover the truth ...
