Queen of Kings jumps right in where most stories about Queen Cleopatra end. Beginning with her last mortal day and night with Mark Antony, it follows the queen through to the bargain she makes with an old and chaotic god to try and save her nation and her husband, the consequences that follow, and the revenge she seeks afterwards.
Jumping from the perspective of Cleopatra, Mark Antony, Octavian Augustus, Agrippa , and a slew of other characters both friend and foe to the raging queen, and bringing to light to other mythic figures and artifacts, Queen of Kings sets Cleopatra in a fittingly magical world for her greatest act of revenge.

Two Americans studying at Cambridge, Polly and Liv, become quick friends, strangers to their new home, survivors of past mistakes. They find a common interest in Nick, and for a time, the three engage in harmless flirtation, until Nick inexplicably disappears, bringing long buried histories to the surface. Told through five narrators whose personal obsessions limit what each of them sees, learning how devastating the ripples of the past can be, and what happens when they're looking elsewhere.
