The final instalment in Elodie Harper's Sunday Times bestselling Wolf Den Trilogy A courtesan in Rome. Playing for power. Haunted by her past. Her name is Amara. How will her fortunes fall? Amara's journey has taken her far, from a lowly slave in Pompeii's brothel to a high-powered courtesan in Rome. She is now a freedwoman with wealth and influence, yet she is still drawn back to her past. For while Amara is caught up in the political scheming of the Imperial palace, her daughter remains in Pompeii, raised by the only man she ever truly loved. Although she longs for her family, Amara knows they are safest while she is far away. Perhaps, with enough cunning and courage, she will manage to turn Fortuna's wheel in their favour. But the year is ad 79, and Mount Vesuvius is preparing to make itself known... The Temple of Fortuna is the dramatic final instalment in Elodie Harper's Sunday Times-bestselling Wolf Den trilogy, which reimagines the lives of women who have long been overlooked. Praise for the Wolf Den Trilogy: 'Captivating' Jennifer Saint 'Vibrant and thrilling' Observer 'Beautiful' Susan Stokes-Chapman 'Richly imagined' Louise O'Neill 'Spell-binding' Anna Mazzola 'One-of-a-kind' Red Magazine 'Triumphant' Luna McNamara
Elodie Harper has concluded this trilogy in the most perfect way imaginable. She sweeps the reader into the world of ancient Rome and Pompeii so effortlessly - we are there, utterly absorbed in every detail...[it is] unbelievably beautiful, emotional and powerful. As someone who has been so invested in Amara's journey since we met her in the Lupanar in the first book, I was on tenterhooks to see how her story would end. Now I feel bereft that the series is complete and there is no more. Jennifer Saint
