In Pompeii in AD 74, Amara is an educated Greek woman whose father’s death left her family without protection. Sold into slavery and forced to work in the city’s lupanar, she is owned by the violent brothel keeper Felix and shares the confined life of women whose bodies and earnings are treated as his property.
Amara refuses to accept that the brothel must define the rest of her life. Friendship with the other women gives her emotional support, while her education and understanding of Pompeii’s patronage system offer possible routes towards freedom. Every opportunity, however, carries a price that may be paid by Amara or by the people she is trying to protect.
