The exhilarating follow-up to Pat Barker's The Women of Troy and The Silence of the Girls
'Brilliant, masterful... Barker strips away the glittering armour of myth' - Guardian
After ten blood-filled years, the war is over. Troy lies in smoking ruins as the victorious Greeks fill their ships with the spoils of battle.
Alongside the treasures looted are the many Trojan women captured by the Greeks – among them the legendary prophetess Cassandra, and her watchful maid, Ritsa. Enslaved as concubine – war-wife – to King Agamemnon, Cassandra is plagued by visions of his death – and her own – while Ritsa is forced to bear witness to both Cassandra's frenzies and the horrors to come.
Meanwhile, awaiting the fleet's return is Queen Clytemnestra, vengeful wife of Agamemnon. Heart-shattered by her husband's choice to sacrifice their eldest daughter to the gods in exchange for a fair wind to Troy, she has spent this long decade plotting retribution, in a palace haunted by child-ghosts.
As one wife journeys toward the other, united by the vision of Agamemnon's death, one thing is certain: this long-awaited homecoming will change everyone's fates forever.
'The queen of literary historical fiction, Barker is an unflinching guide for a trip across ancient Greece' - National Geographic
'Astonishingly fresh... Pat Barker is one of the finest novelists working today' - Alice Winn, author of In Memoriam
SHORTLISTED FOR THE ANGLO-HELLENIC LEAGUE RUNCIMAN AWARD 2025
