In Athens, crowds flock to witness the most shocking trial of the ancient world. The royal family is mired in scandal. Phaedra, young bride of King Theseus, has accused her stepson, Hippolytus of rape.
He's a prince, a talented horseman, a promising noble with his whole life ahead of him. She's a young and neglected wife, the youngest in a long line of Cretan women with less than savoury reputations.
The men of Athens must determine the truth. Who is guilty, and who is innocent?
But the women know truth is a slippery thing. After all, this is the age of heroes and the age of monsters. There are two sides to every story, and theirs has gone unheard.

Laura Shepperson places the voices of women at the forefront and tells their stories with remarkable emotional intensity. The novel’s multi-perspective structure is especially effective: Phaedra’s chapters are deeply moving, and the “Night Chorus” adds a striking, almost tragic dimension to the narrative.
The book presents a dark yet highly coherent vision of the ancient world, where themes such as power, violence, and societal structures become clearly visible. Despite the heavy subject matter, the writing remains precise, atmospheric, and elegantly composed.
A moving, bold, and modern mythological retelling. Highly recommended.
