The Medusa Situation

Mystery, mythology and the missing head of Medusa. In modern day Australia the Greek goddess Hera and her Olympian family have accepted their forced divine retirement and live out their immortality in the suburbs of Sydney. Their once exciting, all-powerful, and totally worshipped lives have been replaced by endless days of quiet resentment and mystical reality TV programs. That is until Stheno and Euryale, sisters of the more famous gorgon of legend, turn up on Hera's doorstep asking for help because Medusa's head has been stolen. Again. In a race against time Hera and her step-daughter, the goddess Athena, join forces with a rag tag bunch of ancient Greek deities and mystical creatures to find the culprit and recover Medusa's head before it creates havoc across the mortal and divine realms. The Medusa Situation is Janet Evanovich meets Natalie Hayes in funny urban fantasy which takes on justice, male entitlement, and the many ways in which powerful women and the female 'monsters' of legend have forever been portrayed. It's mystery, mythology, comedy and social commentary with a feminist twist.
