... there is need of ... the virgin defiled ...Ancient and modern religion are opposed in this final volume of the Goddess Trilogy. The corrupt Cardinal Vergiliae seeks to pervert the power of Christianity through the sacrifice of a mutilated nun and a strangely gifted child..As winter gives way to the promise of spring, the battle to defeat him will range from the Oxford home of a retired academic to the papal town of Avignon, to the ruined Sanctuary of Juno Sospita, Juno the Saviour, in the Alban Hills.In this last encounter of the mystical three that will reconcile past and present, Jane Harrison will find that the enemy is also the anguish and confusion that good entails, when even goodness itself is multi-faceted and enigmatic.
