The incredible untold story of Queen Cleopatra and Marc Antony's orphaned children taken to Rome to be raised as hostages in the palace of their father's greatest rival. Following Cleopatra and Marc Antony's deaths, their three children ' twins named Alexander and Selene plus a younger son named Ptolemy ' are exiled from Egypt and sent to Rome in chains to be raised in one of the most fascinating and dangerous courts of all time. Cleopatra's Daughter is the remarkable true story of what happens to these three surviving children as seen through the eyes of Selene. Their adaptation to Roman culture, their treatment as both a curiosity and a threat, and Selene's perilous journey to adulthood, are all chronicled in the elegant detail and gripping pace for which Michelle Moran is celebrated.
