Household Gods

Nicole Gunther-Perrin is a modern young professional, weary of the daily grind. After one exceptionally awful day, she awakens to find herself in a different life, that of a widowed tavern keeper on the Roman frontier around A.D. 170.

Delighted at first, she quickly realises that her new world is as complicated as her old one. Violence, dirt, and pain are everywhere. Yet, somehow, people manage to face life everyday with humour and goodwill.

No quitter, Nicole manages to adapt. But when plague sweeps through Carnuntum, followed by brutal war, she must an inner-strength she never knew she had.
