Description

This story of ambition, love, and political intrigue brings to life colorful characters and an exotic time and place. In A.D. 412 Alexandria, against the backdrop of a city torn by religious and political strife, Selene struggles to achieve her dream of becoming a physician-an unlikely goal for an upper class Christian girl. Hypatia, the famed Lady Philosopher of Alexandria and the Augustal Prefect Orestes offer their patronage and protection. But will it be enough to save Selene from murderous riots, the machinations of a charismatic bishop, and-most dangerous of all-her own impulsive nature?

Her work has appeared in such publications as Salon.com, Writer's Digest, The Copperfield Review, and the Circles in the Hair anthology. She is a frequent contributor to Strange Horizons, Associate Editor for Space and Time Magazine, and co-founded a writer's workshop many more years ago than she likes to admit. For fun, she likes to dig in the dirt-her garden and various archaeological sites.
