The House of Atreus is spiralling into self-destruction — a woman must find a way to break the family curse.
Queen Clytemnestra’s world shatters when Agamemnon, a rival to the throne of Mycenae, storms her palace, destroys her family and claims not only the throne but Clytemnestra herself.
Tormented by her loss, she vows to do all she can to protect the children born from her unhappy marriage to Agamemnon.
But when her husband casts his ruthless gaze towards the wealthy citadel of Troy, his ambitions threaten to once more destroy the family Clytemnestra loves.
Clytemnestra’s Bind by Susan C Wilson is published on 15 June, 2023.
Susan has written about the turbulent background to her debut novel, and the unconventional woman at its centre, in Motives of a Bronze Age murderess.
