"Run, Thea! Escape the walls around you...!"

On that imperative, a young slave girl flees a royal Roman household into a mystical, harrowing adventure. In the mountains surrounding the city Thea meets the "master of all sorceresses" who reveals Thea's past identity. She will need all the strength and wisdom she can draw from her past for this fast-moving journey across ancient landscapes and the paths of caesars, kings and warriors. But will Thea find her way to carry out a history-changing mission to secure the peace of nations? And peace in her heart?

"Our souls travel through different times and places," Thea says. Author Dr. Nooshie Motaref takes readers on this perilous trek across time and the power centers of Rome and Persia, guided by the first-person prose of Thea and her fellow storytellers. The Girl Raised in Bull Blood is adventure and romance at a page-turning pace.
