One of the characters is a former concubine (essentially a sex slave), but the actual contents of her job are kept vaguemelaniereadsbooks's review

I loved the character development between all of the characters and being able to read a little bit about some of their pasts as well as their presents. I definitely thought the before storylines were good chapters to include!
Also, just....Ariadne. Enough said.
