(3) YA A hostage in ancient Greece, Anaxandra relies on her "goddess of yesterday" as she impersonates her foster sister, Princess Callisto, in the court of Menelaus and Helen. When Helen flees with Paris to Troy, Anaxandra is enslaved but saves Menelaus's son. The classical setting is fully and engrossingly evoked; Anaxandra is a courageous heroine, and the fast action resolves in a pleasing ending.
