Description
Twelve-year-old Dido dreams of becoming the first female charioteer at the great Circus Maximus, where the best horses and charioteers compete in a race to the death. But such ambitions are forbidden to girls, and she must be content with helping her father, a trainer, and teaching the rules of racing to her nephew. When her father is brutally murdered, Dido is forced to seek refuge with an unlikely ally. As she faces a powerful and terrifying new enemy, the emperor Caligula, Dido must follow her dreams against all the odds. With brilliant horses and a determined heroine, this adventure is full of action and suspense.
