The book is set in ancient Rome and follows the life of Velleda, a young girl who is the daughter of a wealthy Roman senator. Velleda's life takes a dramatic turn when she is kidnapped by a group of Germanic tribesmen and taken to their homeland. As Velleda adjusts to her new life, she begins to develop a deep understanding of the Germanic people and their customs. She also discovers that she has a special gift - the ability to see into the future. This gift earns her the respect and admiration of the Germanic tribes, and she becomes a revered figure among them. However, Velleda's loyalties are tested when she is forced to choose between her Roman heritage and the people who have become her family.
