'Klytemestra has good reason to hate her husband; the great Agamemnon, who killed her first husband and newborn son, and dragged her off to Mycenae to be his queen. When Klytie's sister, Helene, runs away with Paris to far off Troy, Agamemnon begins a decade-long campaign against the country that harbours the lovers. Klytie is left abandoned and alone, her hatred settling as a black cloud over her heart. Finally, she accepts the advances of Aegisthus, her husband's cousin and true heir to the crown Agamemnon wears. But then Agamemnon returns with his war prize, Cassandra. It is the final straw in a long list of evils. But is it enough to justify murder?'
