FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF BABYLONIA

Mother. Monarch. Murderer. Magnificent . . . meet Clytemnestra, the ancient world's most wronged woman . . .


'Vivid with fury, passion and strength, this is a fabulous myth retelling' Jennifer Saint

'A blaze of a novel, fiery and furious - and alight with murderous revenge' Daily Mail

----

She is born to a king but marries a tyrant.

She watches helplessly as he sacrifices her child to the gods.

She bides her time. She plots revenge. She knows how to play this game.

If power will not be given to her, then she will take it for herself.

She is Clytemnestra.

----
