Strong as a Pharaoh

Egypt! What better place to break free of painful ruts and crippling memories of two disastrous first marriages? Megan, a blocked mystery writer, signs on for a tour of this ancient world of temples, pyramids and pharaohs, desperately needing to re-create herself in the aftermath of the suicide of her emotionally abusive husband. She no longer needs a man in her life...she thinks.... Daniel, a professor and church music director, signs on for a tour of Egypt at the end of his sabbatical in Oxford. He loved his mentally-ill ex-wife, and still can't understand why she left him all those years ago, taking their daughter with her. Two kindred spirits meet overseas and keep finding new common ground, a growing attraction...and hidden secrets...as they visit Cairo and Luxor, then board a cruise ship on the Nile. But it's not all glamor. Mummies look grisly, vendors are aggressive, and women are regarded as second-class citizens. Screams punctuate the night as memories surface in nightmares, and a nearby hot air balloon crash triggers more trauma. And who'd ever guess that the mentally-ill ex might show up on the same cruise ship, clearly no longer taking the medications that kept her stable? And that she even seems to want Daniel back...right when Megan and Daniel are discovering a new love that's helping them learn to trust again.
