A university professor is brutally murdered in Egypt’s Sinai

Ibrahim. As Aimee tries to unravel the web of lies and secrets surrounding her
husband’s death, she unwittingly becomes a pawn in a revolutionary plot against
Egypt’s king. With the discovery of a twenty-year-old diary, the mystery only
deepens. As Aimee gets ever closer to the truth, she discovers startling
parallels between her own life and that of the mother she never knew.
Unfolding in the city’s brothels, hashish cafes, and
jasmine-scented colonial mansions, The
Hidden is a gritty, sensual
tale of revolution, betrayal, and the lengths we will go to for love—and truth.
