What-or who-really killed Egypt's glorious young king?Since the discovery of the magnificent tomb of Tutankhamun at Thebes by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon in 1922, the name of the young Pharaoh has become famous throughout the world.The boy-king came to the throne aged twelve during one of Egypt's most turbulent periods, when religious dissent threatened to destroy a mighty empire. He should have lived out a long and prosperous reign but died mysteriously just six years after his accession, aged just eighteen.Was he secretly assassinated by the powerful cartel that ran the court and the country? What part did Ay, Tutankhamun's ambitious first minister, play in his master's death? Did Ay murder the Pharaoh to claim the imperial crown for himself?Using modern research, coupled with Carter's original testimony, Paul Doherty presents a thought-provoking account, resolving many contentious issues, offering important new theories and explaining the dark intrigue that surrounded the untimely death of Tutankhamun.
