Kathryn Berck

The Suppliant Kathryn Berck

An old hero walks willingly into exile. A feral child learns compassion and brutality in equal measure. A woman is unmarriageable until one even stranger than she appears from beyond her world. A hideous sacrifice drives a young murderer ten thousand miles from his homeland; hubris drives him back again. And the Greek outlaw Akhaïdes endures life without relief or reparation-until servitude, humility, and two inconceivable monsters offer answers that he could never have imagined.
