Description
On the island of Crete, Princess Ariadne grows up in the shadow of her family’s darkest secret: a monstrous brother hidden within the labyrinth and a kingdom bound to an annual sacrifice. When the Athenian hero Theseus arrives to challenge the Minotaur, Ariadne seizes the chance for freedom, setting in motion choices that will reshape her life and her bond with her sister, Phaedra. Reimagining a foundational Greek myth through the eyes of the women who have long stood at its edges, this atmospheric, emotionally charged novel explores love, loyalty, sacrifice, sisterhood, and the cost of defying the stories written by gods and heroes.
