Solina grows up beneath the reputation of her mother Boudicca, queen of the Iceni and leader of the revolt against Rome. The rebellion brings violence to Roman Britain and places the queen’s daughters at the centre of a struggle in which family honour, tribal loyalty and imperial punishment cannot be separated.

After Boudicca’s defeat, Solina must survive in a world controlled by the victors. Her journey takes her from the marshlands of Britain into Nero’s Roman Empire, where intelligence and adaptability matter more than the heroic identity others expect her to inherit. The novel examines the aftermath of rebellion through a daughter whose life is largely absent from the Roman historical record.
