Surrounded by gods, gladiators and powerful heirs to the underworld, she must learn to fight for her place in a world where monsters wear the faces of heroes. As Achilles and Patro train her to become a warrior, Augustus and Kharon draw her into a dangerous web of attraction, secrets and supernatural politics.
