Pandora Gets Angry (2011)
“Known world to Pandy. Come in, Pandy.”
Pandy stared at the striped silk siding of the market stall. Then she stared at the rugs covering the dirt floor. She had no idea how she was going to explain her conversation with Alcie to Iole. Finally she looked up.

“What beginning? You were there at the beginning,” she said, her voice raised. “You saw everything. The prince was poisoned and we got three blood scorpions in the box before Homer started yelling and you ran over to him. I was about to follow you when Alcie—Alcie’s voice—it was Alcie’s voice, Iole, by Athena it was! And it started coming out of the grand vizier’s mouth.MoreLess
