The narrative follows Cassandra, endowed with prophetic powers yet ignored by those around her, and Ritsa, her devoted slave, as they navigate a treacherous journey back to Mycenae. Amidst the turmoil of Agamemnon's drunkenness and the brewing conflict with Queen Clytemnestra, Ritsa strives to protect Cassandra while grappling with her own survival. Pat Barker reinterprets Greek mythology through a feminist lens, exploring themes of power, belief, and the complexities of female agency in a richly woven tale.
