  • "Anna Zarides arrives in Constantinople in 1273 to prove the innocence of her twin brother Justinian, who has been exiled for conspiring to kill a nobleman. Disguising herself as a eunuch named Anastasius, Anna moves freely, using her skills as a physician to get close to key players in her brother's fate.

  • "In a tale set in 13th-century Constantinople at the brink of a Christian crusade, Anastasius disguises herself as a eunuch to prove her brother's innocence of a crime he did not commit, an effort that takes her from humble neighborhoods to the palace of the emperor."
  • "En la turbulenta Constantinopla del siglo XIII, una joven busca la verdad oculta tras el exilio de su hermano. Ana Zarides llega a Constantinopla disfrazada de eunuco dispuesta a dedicarse a la medicina. La acompañan sus dos fieles sirvientes y amigos: la criada Simonis y el eunuco Leo. Desde el momento en que pone un pie en la ciudad, amenazada por las cruzadas, Ana pasa a ser Anastasio. Sin embargo, el viaje de Ana encierra un secreto: su hermano gemelo, Justiniano, ha sido acusado de asesinar al obispo Besarión Comneno, y ella está decidida a probar su inocencia."
