Step into a world of ancient wonders and heart-wrenching drama with "Escape from Pompeii: A Journey of Love and Tragedy." This captivating historical novel transports you from a quaint Bavarian village, where Anya, a young Celtic beauty, is brutally ripped from her loving home and family, captured by soldiers, and marched into Rome to be sold in the city’s slave market. Follow her plight as she’s purchased and enslaved by a powerful aristocratic family where she’s determined to survive the degradation and humiliation of slavery and servitude.

Witness Anya’s transformation as her life shifts from being a servant girl in an opulent mansion in Rome to a blossoming young woman serving in a grand estate in Pompeii. You will be drawn into Anya's forbidden romance with Julius, the son of her powerful Roman diplomat master, and feel her anguish and despair as they are torn apart and she’s forced into the dark underbelly of life in a Pompeiian brothel as punishment by her vengeful master’s wife.

You will cheer as she escapes the bonds of the brothel to become a respected apprentice to a renowned apothecary and redeems herself as she navigates a perilous path filled with betrayal and vengeance against the backdrop of the ominous rumblings of Mount Vesuvius. Accused of a horrible crime, the tension builds to a dramatic climax as Anya’s life explodes in concert with the spectacular eruption of Vesuvius, resulting in the total devastation of Pompeii. Anya's story, wound around historical facts, reveals an inspiring and remarkable life marked by resilience, love, and hope.

This unforgettable tale of survival, love, and redemption is dramatic historical fiction, epic romance, and a remarkable adventure through ancient Rome. Grab your copy today and embark on an extraordinary adventure through the annals of history.
