| Plot Summary of Inside the Walls of Troy |
|---|
"Set during the legendary Trojan War, "Inside the Walls of Troy" is a gripping novel which tells the stories of two women who were closely linked to the war -- Helen, the World's Most Beautiful, and Cassandra, daughter of King Priam and sister to the legendary Hector. Spanning Helen's childhood, marriage, and escape, as well as Cassandra's early years and life in Troy, this book allows such characters to become much more lifelike. Ultimately, the Trojan War begins and the two women experience great loss and sadness, but are comforted by each other and happy memories."
