History is littered with the fates of mortals who rose too close to the gods.
Returning triumphant from the cursed city of Urruc - where even the divine dare not tread - Desma has brought wealth, power, and victory to her home kingdom of Apasa. Among the treasures is the revered Belt of Turan, said to have adorned the hips of the Goddess of Love herself.
Desma's mother, the High Priestess Timothea, calls for a celebration in the temple to honour the priceless find. But when unwanted visitors attempt to lay claim to the treasure, the High Priestess is brutally slain. To save her distraught father from eternal shame, Desma commits an unforgivable sin that saves his soul - and damns hers.
Pronounced unclean by the King and banished from her home, Desma is forced to live by a punishing set of rules that set her apart from society. Her only hope of reclaiming her life is to be cleansed by a merciful kingdom.
But Desma's path to redemption is littered with the dark truths of love and power...
The Wine-Dark Daughter is the first in The Wine-Dark Series, an epic fantasy saga inspired by ancient Mediterranean mythologies.
