Elevation Book Publishing will release Khafa The High Priestess December 6, 2016 in bookstores across the United States. (http://goo.gl/uW6xVf) "It's exciting to be a part of the historical romance genre revitalization," says Rhonda Wilson Publisher.

Khafa The High Priestess by Lory La Selva Paduano (Elevation Books) is a rare historical fiction set not in the Europe of Dukes but the Antediluvian Egypt of Pharaohs. It begins with the Hawann family in Savannah, Georgia in our present and comes to encompass ancient conspiracies, outrageous excesses, the debut of the Freemasons, and the mysticism of a legendary religious heritagethe intriguing Khemitians. Their hidden knowledge (which references Nikola Tesla and Alessandro Volta) makes you wonder about the real purpose of the Great Pyramid.

Young Liz Hawann grows up listening to her grandmother's spellbinding story of the indigenous dynasty, that was her family. There's the lovely girl Pharaoh, unprepared to rule a country. The power behind her throne is the beautiful and cunning Khafa, High Priestess. Stunning, savage, and beautiful, she is a towering figure in the saga. Passionate and far-seeing, the High Priestess will betray and be betrayed, inspire great desire and war, attempt great feats of science and flee for her life. Though indelible to Liz, The High Priestess was erased from any hieroglyphic. At the end of Khafa The High Priestess, Liz proves a worthy descendant, brilliant, beautiful, and stronger than she knows.
