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?

Britská autorka vypráví příběh Ariadny, klíčové postavy z klasického řeckého mýtu o Théseovi. Krásná Ariadna, dcera mocného krétského krále Mínóa, vyrůstá se svými sourozenci v paláci, v jehož podzemí je uvězněný Mínótauros, napůl býk, napůl člověk. Jednou z jeho dalších obětí se má stát mladý athénský princ Théseus, ale Ariadna se do něj zamiluje a pomůže mu. Její nit ho bezpečně vyvede ze zrádného labyrintu. Ale co se stane poté, co je monstrum poraženo a princezna odejde s hrdinou? Zajistí jí rozhodnutí zradit Krétu šťastný konec? Ve světě, kde rozhodují muži - a vrtkaví bohové, není nic jisté.
