Bookroo's summary

In the Samnium Mountains of ancient Italy, Chloé, a slave with a mysterious past, harbors resentment for the father who abandoned her. Her life of weaving and stolen moments in nature contrasts sharply with the vibrant world of Aulus, a Roman youth oblivious to her existence. As Chloé dreams of freedom and Aulus faces unexpected upheaval, their paths are destined to cross, challenging their perceptions and altering their futures. Set against the backdrop of the Gracchi era, this tale weaves the spirit of Greece with the might of Rome, exploring themes of identity, destiny, and resilience.
