As Princesses of Crete & daughters of the fearsome King Minos, Ariadne & her sister Phaedra grow up hearing the hoofbeats & bellows of the Minotaur echo from the Labyrinth beneath the palace. The Minotaur
- Minos's greatest shame & Ariadne's brother
- demands blood every year.
When Theseus, Prince of Athens, arrives in Crete as a sacrifice to the beast, Ariadne falls in love with him. But helping Theseus kill the monster means betraying her family & country, & Ariadne knows only too well that in a world ruled by mercurial gods
