Description Hecuba, Queen of Troy, is stranded, along with her fellow captive women and the greek army, on the coast of northern Greece. Her society, her family, almost everything that contributed to her identity has been destroyed, and her tenuous grip on anything meaningful is maintained by a daughter, also enslaved, and a son, sent from Troy to the safety of an ally before the city fell. And even the are ripped from her. So she takes her revenge.
