Perhaps it is my responsibility to set the record straight, before that luck, of which I have already had so much more than I deserve, does finally run out." 79 CE - Drusilla has apparently settled down to a peaceful life in Pompeii, with her niece, Marcella. But when Titus Flavius Lucas arrives, eager to question Drusilla about an episode from her childhood that she had hoped was long since forgotten, she realises it is time to confront her past. This is the first of a trilogy, loosely inspired by the biblical story of Jairus' daughter.
