refreshing.” —Elizabeth Jane, Historical Novels Review

recreates the dilemma of a young woman torn between two of Italy’s
ancient cultures.” —Isolde Martyn, author of The Maiden and the
Unicorn

life. Thank you, Elisabeth, for giving a voice to some of the most
intriguing pieces of the Museum of Veii.” —Iefke van Kampen,
