a High Priestess Iliona Ancient Greek Mystery
3 primary works
Book 1
This is a new series set in Ancient Greece from the creator of "Claudia Seferius." It is 466 BC. Blackmailed into spying for Sparta's hated secret police, High Priestess Iliona has no option but to play along with its ruthless commander, Lysander. But as the purpose of the mission unfolds, Iliona comes to realize that the threat to her country doesn't come from the arch-enemy, Athens; it comes from deep within Sparta itself. There is a traitor in the team that Lysander has sent to Sicily with her. But who is it? Manetho the tracker? Light-fingered Philip? She already mistrusts Jocasta the physician, who appears to be working to a shadowy agenda of her own, and soon it becomes clear that the traitor is looking to frame Iliona for treason. As Iliona investigates, the same thread keeps turning up: stories of a one-eyed giant that lives in the hills. The legendary Cyclops. But in this age of enlightenment, everyone knows there's no such thing - so who is this man who is terrorizing the locals? A fraud? A freak? A felon? The deeper Iliona investigates, the more deadly the threat. And the greater the danger to herself.
