She watches as they walk the gardens and corridors of the palace. She waits for the traitors to become complacent, to believe they are finally safe; she waits for her exiled brother, Orestes, for the boy to become a warrior, for fate to follow him home. She watches and she waits, until her spies announce her brother's return . *** Quantity Available: 4. Category: Literature & Literary; ISBN/EAN: 9781760551421. Inventory No: 20050137.
