Book
The Temple of Fortuna
First published 2023
Amara has risen from the lupanar to become a wealthy courtesan in Rome, where her security depends on reading the rivalries of the imperial household. Vespasian’s death places Titus on the throne and sharpens the danger surrounding his brother Domitian, forcing Amara to balance political access against the safety of her family.
Her daughter remains in Pompeii with the people Amara loves most, drawing her back towards Campania as Mount Vesuvius approaches its eruption in AD 79. The final volume brings court intrigue, motherhood and the unfinished consequences of slavery together with the destruction of Pompeii and the question of which relationships can survive catastrophe.
