Description
A sweeping retelling of the Trojan War unfolds through the intertwined lives of three women: Clytemnestra, queen of Mycenae; Cassandra, the prophetess cursed to foresee disaster; and Elektra, her mother’s fiercely determined daughter. As war, betrayal, and divine influence shape the fate of their families, each woman must confront the legacy of a curse that reaches across generations. Richly atmospheric and emotionally powerful, the novel explores motherhood, grief, vengeance, destiny, and the devastating consequences of men’s ambitions and the gods’ whims.
