Synopsis

National bestselling author of Daughters of Sparta Claire Heywood returns with an imaginative and female-centered reinterpretation of the myth of Perseus.

Myth remembers Perseus as one of its greatest heroes.
A slayer of monsters. A rescuer of damsels.
 
But the women who knew him best have a different story to tell.
 
His mother, Danae.
His trophy, Medusa.
His wife, Andromeda.
 
As Perseus becomes obsessed with the promise of his own destiny, his heroic journey casts a shadow of violence and destruction across all three women's lives.
 
It takes strength to survive a legend.
