In eighth-century BCE central Europe, Epona is born into a Celtic community that recognises her unusual spiritual gifts and expects her to accept a sacred role. Unwilling to surrender control of her life, she leaves with Kazhak, a Scythian prince whose people have mastered mounted warfare, and enters a mobile world stretching across the plains beyond the Celtic settlements.
As Epona learns to ride and to understand the bond between horse and rider, her journey carries her through conflict, migration and the meeting of eastern steppe culture with the peoples of ancient Europe. The novel reimagines the mortal experiences that might have grown into the worship of Epona, the Celtic horse goddess, while following a woman trying to turn inherited power into a destiny of her own.
