The narrative centers on Cassandra, a woman endowed with prophetic powers yet dismissed by those around her, and Ritsa, her devoted slave, as they navigate a treacherous journey back to Mycenae. While Cassandra foresees impending doom for Agamemnon, her warnings are ignored, leading to tension among their shipmates. As Ritsa strives to protect Cassandra amidst growing chaos and the volatile relationship between Agamemnon and Queen Clytemnestra, the story reinterprets Greek mythology through a feminist lens, showcasing Pat Barker's literary prowess.
