About this book

The second book in Claire North's Penelope trilogy is titled "House of Odysseus." The narrative takes place on the island of Ithaca, where Queen Penelope without her husband Odysseus, manages a precarious power balance. The return of Elektra the sister of Mycenae's King Orestes, upends the calm. Orestes is gradually becoming insane because he is so consumed with guilt after killing his mother.

Penelope is caught between two insane rulers and battles to prevent her village from being destroyed by a conflict that spans from Mount Olympus to Mycenae and Sparta. Her sole supporters are Menelaus' wife Helen of Troy and Elektra, who is fighting for her brother's safety. Every woman carries a secret, and the world is shaped by these secrets.
