A spellbinding reimagining of the story of Elektra, one of Greek
mythology's most infamous heroines, from Jennifer Saint, the author of
the beloved international bestseller, Ariadne.
Three women, tangled in an ancient curse.
When Clytemnestra marries Agamemnon, she ignores the insidious whispers
about his family line, the House of Atreus. But when, on the eve of the
Trojan War, Agamemnon betrays Clytemnestra in the most unimaginable way,
she must confront the curse that has long ravaged their family.
In Troy, Princess Cassandra has the gift of prophecy, but carries a
curse of her own: no one will ever believe what she sees. When she is
shown what will happen to her beloved city when Agamemnon and his army
arrives, she is powerless to stop the tragedy from unfolding.
Elektra, Clytemnestra and Agamemnon's youngest daughter, wants only for
her beloved father to return home from war. But can she escape her
family's bloody history, or is her destiny bound by violence, too?
