are born to a king but marry a tyrant. You stand helplessly as he sacrifices your child to
placate the gods. You watch him wage war on a foreign shore and comfort yourself with violent
thoughts of your own. You play the part fooling enemies who deny you justice. Slowly you
plot. You are Clytemnestra. But when the husband who owns you returns in triumph what then?
Acceptance or vengeance - infamy follows both. So you bide your time and wait until you might
force the gods' hands and take revenge. Until you rise. For you understood something that the
others don't. If power isn't given to you you have to take it for yourself. A blazing novel
