Summary
Stephanie Dray: The Lotus of the Nile
After the tragic fall of Alexandria, Selena was taken from Egypt and, together with her two brothers, exhibited in Rome as a war trophy. The jailers lead them through the city in chains. However, at the moment when their lives hang in the balance, they are saved by the emperor's sister, who takes them to a home for royal orphans. Egypt is deeply inscribed in Selene's heart. Will they be able to get him back? How will the political game end in which the only rule is the one Cleopatra whispered to her daughter Selene: win or die?
