Sinopsis

A Haunting Exploration of the Human Heart and the Price of Sin.

Step back into the rigid, shadow-filled world of 17th-century Puritan Boston with Nathaniel Hawthorne's most celebrated work, The Scarlet Letter. When Hester Prynne is found guilty of adultery, she is sentenced to wear a permanent mark of shame: a vibrant, embroidered "A" upon her chest.

As Hester struggles to build a life of dignity for herself and her daughter, Pearl, she remains bound to two men—one consumed by secret guilt and the other by a thirst for cold-blooded revenge. Hawthorne's masterful prose delves deep into the psychological toll of hidden sin, the hypocrisy of society, and the possibility of ultimate redemption.

This definitive edition presents the quintessential work of American Dark Romanticism. A cornerstone of classic literature, this novel continues to provoke profound questions about morality, law, and the resilience of the human spirit.

    Does Amenhotep succumb to the shadows of his father's great palace or does he rise above the ridicule to forge his own path? 
    Egypt's Second Born is the fifth and final prequel of Lauren Lee Merewether's debut series, The Lost Pharaoh Chronicles, a resurrection of an erased time that follows the five kings of Egypt who were lost to history for over three millennia. The series begins with book one, Salvation in the Sun. 
    "...an exceptional, fascinating, and distinctive historical novel...truly superb." - Jessica Barbosa for Readers' Favorite (★★★★★) 
    "...another highly compelling historical family drama that has plenty of highs, lows, and relatability to offer its readers... One of the things which never ceases to amaze me when I review Merewether's works is the innate sense of humanity that runs through her characters, drawing parallels with modern emotions so that we can relate to lives quite unlike our own." - K.C. Finn for Readers' Favorite (★★★★★) 
    "Egypt's Second Born offers a compelling journey back into the first great civilization of humanity and shows us the structure and societal shape that made the Egyptians so dominant in that span of millennia but would also play a part in its ultimate downfall." - Grant Leishman for Readers' Favorite (★★★★★)
