Love caused this war.
At least, that’s what the stories will say.

When Cassandra’s patron god, Apollo, offers her the gift of prophecy- and all the power that comes with it - she seizes the opportunity. But when she fails to uphold he end of the agreement, she discovers just how very far she has to fall. No one believes her visions. Which all seem to be of one girl - and she’s going to start a war.

Helen fled Sparta in pursuit of love - though that’s proving more elusive than she’d hoped. Far from home, Helen’s navigating all the politics and backstabbing of the Trojan court.

And one princess seems particularly intent on driving her from the city…

But when war finally strikes, there’s more than the army at their walls to contend with. Cassandra and Helen might hold the key to reweaving the future - especially with the strands of fate drawing them closer together.

But how do you change the future when following your heart means defying the gods themselves.

A fierce, feminist and gloriously romantic new Greek myth reimagining from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Girl, Goddess, Queen.
