In his absence, Penelope uses all her cunning to keep the peace--a peace that is shattered by the return of Orestes, King of Mycenae, and his sister Elektra. Orestes' hands are stained with his mother's blood. Not so long ago, the son of Agamemnon took Queen Clytemnestra's life on Ithaca's sands. Now, wracked with guilt, he is slowly losing his mind. But a king cannot be seen to be weak, and Elektra has brought him to Ithaca to keep him safe from the ambitious men of Mycenae. Penelope knows destruction will follow in his wake as surely as the furies circle him. His uncle Menelaus, the battle-hungry king of Sparta, longs for Orestes' throne--and if he can seize it, no one will be safe from his violent whims. Trapped between two mad kings, Penelope fights to keep her home from being crushed by a war that stretches from Mycenae and Sparta to the summit of Mount Olympus itself. Her only allies are Elektra, desperate to protect her brother, and Helen of Troy, Menelaus' wife. And watching over them all is the goddess Aphrodite, who has plans of her own. Each woman has a secret. And their secrets will shape the world"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction North in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Fiction North Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction North Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction North Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Fiction North Checked out 06/10/2024 Add Copy to MyList Pearl City Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order   On Order   Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Science Fiction North Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
