**How could he have been so blind?**He thought he had left his papyrus business in safe hands when he traveled to Ephesus to his father's deathbed.On his return to Egypt, Simon discovered the son he had entrusted to manage the business had embraced the Wadjet heresy and had been progressively taking over the entire business in his absence.Why had Simon had no idea what had been happening? His son had managed the papyrus works In Buto efficiently. At least he had thought so. Perhaps he should have traveled there more often. When had he changed his name to Sefu, meaning sword? Who did his son plan using it on? Now he had to undo Sefu's plot to gain even more control by marrying his brother to his daughter, a practice common in Egypt but one he did not approve of. The girl was fourteen, her uncle three times her age! Many of the workers in his warehouse where they packaged what was sent from Buto were strangers to him, and he discovered that his foreman no longer worked there. Simon's plan to transfer the business to this eldest son could no longer go ahead and his return to Ephesus… given up or significantly delayed. A faithful Jew, he had no intention of losing his life's work to the Wadjet cult. Open war with the strengthened cult would result in defeat.His fight to regain control had to be subtle, but determined. Would it succeed?
