'A fiery & dramatic novel, starring one of mythology's most notorious women, this is a fascinating descent into darkness' — Jennifer Saint, author of Ariadne

'Full of thwarted love & dark magic . . . Vivid & powerful, this is a book with teeth' — Luna McNamara, author of Psyche & Eros

Shunned. Persecuted. Tormented.

Fierce. Powerful. Sorceress.

But when a dashing young hero, Jason, arrives to claim the famed Golden Fleece that her father fiercely protects, Medea sees her opportunity for escape. Her offer to help Jason overcome the trials set by her father sets in motion a journey that will test every ounce of her strength, magic & loyalty; a journey that will see her battle monsters, dethrone kings & fall in love.

But when faced with the ultimate betrayal, Medea is driven to an act of desperation so brutal it rips apart the lives of everyone involved...
