Publisher's Synopsis
She can see through his eyes, hear what he hears, feel what he feels, though they live millennia apart. Their precarious connection, the result of freak accidents, began (and seemed to end) in 2010 CE, when Suzanne lived Themistokles' teenage adventures in ancient Olympia. Now the connection is back, and in 418 BCE, Athens is threatened from within as well as by Sparta. Suzanne, a student and athlete in Lancaster, England, in 2017 CE, is a fascinated but helpless witness as Themistokles tries to save his city and his family. Meanwhile, she is navigating her own troubled journey through mental and physical challenges, as Themistokles deals with Athenian politics, war, and a forbidden love affair, aided by Frog, his shrewd and resourceful slave and ally.
