The Clay Conspiracy

In the heart of Ur, where wealth flows as tribute and secrets are buried beneath layers of power, merchant Naram's life unravels in a single night. Accused of fraudulent tribute payments, he finds himself entangled in a web of deceit stretching from the temple's inner sanctum to the royal palace itself.

As the empire tightens its grip, Enlila, a meticulous temple scribe, uncovers discrepancies in the tribute records—numbers that don't add up, shipments that vanish, and seals that have been tampered with. What begins as a curiosity soon turns into a dangerous pursuit of truth, with Naram as her reluctant ally. The deeper they dig, the clearer the pattern becomes—someone within the highest ranks of Ur's power structure is orchestrating the theft of royal tributes, and they are willing to silence anyone who gets too close.

With a stolen document revealing a name that could shake the foundations of Ur's power, Naram and Enlila must navigate a world where ink is as dangerous as a blade, and alliances shift like desert sands. Their choices could expose a conspiracy that reaches to the prince himself—or lead to their execution before the truth ever sees daylight.

A gripping blend of historical intrigue, political betrayal, and high-stakes adventure, The Clay Conspiracy is a novel where every secret has a price, and trust is the rarest currency of all.
