Aeneas, the son of Venus, is destined for greatness, prophesised to father a people who will one day rule the world. But behind every great man are the women the prophecies forget. Creusa, Dido and Lavinia will never meet, yet they are united by the ambitions of one man whose life is pre-ordained to collide irreparably with theirs.
