Lucina of Greece was orphaned at a young age and brought up by foster parents. Now aged 13 she is sent to be educated by her philosopher guardian in the place he calls Elysium.

Lucina flees to Rome to become a priestess and the founder of a mystic cult in that yet young and primitive city. She finds love in the arms of a Roman senator, but her philosophical upbringing comes back to haunt her and sets her on a path to return, in a way, to Elysium …

Joan Grant (1907–1989) was an English author and well-known advocate of reincarnation. At an early age she became aware of previous incarnations both male and female, in other centuries and other lands. Her seven historical novels have been highly praised for their ageless wisdom and for their extraordinarily vivid and detailed portrayal of the far distant past.
