Description
Selene. She was gifted, brilliant, beautiful, and dedicated to the healing arts. But in the ancient Roman world, the idea of a woman as a physician was unthinkable-- until Selene challenged all such taboos. This is her story... the story of her apprenticeship to her folk-healer mother... of her relationship with her fiery lover... and of her odyssey through teeming cities and splendid palaces, through danger and intrigue, treachery and seduction... as she followed the call of her desire and destiny as a woman and a doctor.
