When Gerald Winston, an English Egyptologist travelling on the Nile, meets Kara, who claims to be the last descendant of a royal Egyptian family, the scientist's curiosity is sparked by the story Kara tells. Is it true that Kara's ancestor Ahtka-Ra, High Priest of Amen, ruled Rameses II as his puppet? As Winston tries to learn more about the strange Egyptian and his mysterious tale, he is drawn into Kara's insidious intrigues. "The last Egyptian" was the last adult work of fiction of L. Frank Baum of "Land of Oz" fame. The fast-paced tale of betrayal, revenge and romance set in the Nile valley was originally published without the mention of Baum's name because of concerns that it might interfere with his reputation as a writer for children. Annotated version with additional footnotes and "About the Author" section.
