Timos, an aspiring young runner, wrestles with young Nero Claudius who becomes his nemesis. When Timos meets Kyniska—who hopes to compete in the girls’ footrace—he is charmed by her beauty and intellect. Their secret love and Olympian goals clash with the power of the future emperor as well as the forces of oracles, her stern father, and evil plots. Can they yet hope to be victorious?
