Nefertiti Part III: The Cobra Strikes

CBS Radio Mystery Theater "Nefertiti Part III: The Cobra Strikes" is a Mystery from Wednesday, January 10, 1979.

When he hears reports from Egypt’s top general, Horenrab, that the son of the Hittite king, Prince Zannanza, has set out for Egypt with an armed escort, Akhenaton says to welcome him with open arms. Horenrab, fearing Egypt may be conquered, executes a hit and run attack on the prince, who was merely bringing gifts to Akhenaton. Nefertiti, who made no attempt to stop Horenrab because she believed his fears of an attack, now feels the general should be punished. He is assigned a corporal’s job of guarding Nefertiti and Akhenaton as they pursue their newest project—building an entirely new city of truth, hope and prosperity—Amarna—where only one god, Aton, will be worshipped.
