She awakens alone, the words her husband tosses out at her unfamiliar, including her name. Worst of all, he appears to hate her. Bits and pieces of her darkened memory begin to return. She is not Joanna, but Siri, daughter of Ancient Egypt, slave-lover of Petronius of the Roman Army, and her last memory is of Titus, Petroniuss general killing her. Is this the promised after-life? Ten weeks after the crash, Siri is released from the hospital to a household filled with the starchiest people shes ever known, with one exception…her new daughter Mandi. Bent on reforming the stiff upper lips of those around her, belly dancing, togas, dashikis, and schentis become the daily uniforms that wear down the resistance of the manservant, the most unforgiving of nannies, and the crispiest of housekeepers. Laughter, respect, and joy soon fill the household, but Jason continues to keep his distance. Will Siri win over her 21st Century husband and find the key to her time travel? Or will Jason Reed continue to loathe the woman he believes is still his conniving wife…the body Siri now owns?
