Hetaera--suspense in ancient Athens, is Book One of the Agathon's
Daughter Trilogy. Born a bastard and a slave, Hestia has a gift:
the power to read people's hearts. And yet, the secrets of her own
heart remain a mystery. Hestia's keen intellect makes her a match
for any man. But even a literate slave has little control over
destiny. Sold to a prominent statesman with sadistic tendencies,
Hestia becomes his hetaera (consort). As her wealth and fame
increase so does her despair. She dreams of freedom, but she faces
enemies at every turn. When Hestia is accused of murder, the
mystery of her past unravels and fate takes another turn. Hetaera:
Agathon's Daughter was awarded third place in the Maui Writers
Rupert Hughes writing competition.
Suspense in ancient Rome Elissa Rubria Honoria is a Vestal
Virgin--priestess of the sacred flame, a visionary, and one of the
most powerful women in Rome. Vestals are sacrosanct, sworn to
chastity on penalty of death, but the emperor, Nero, holds himself
above the law. He pursues Elissa, engaging her in a deadly game of
wits and sexuality. Or is Elissa really the pursuer? She stumbles
on dark secrets. No longer trusting Roman gods, she follows a new
god, Jesus of Nazareth, jeopardizing her life and the future of The
Roman Empire.
