Synopsis

How's a girl supposed to break a curse she doesn't know was placed on her in a past life? Bull's Labyrinth is the story of a love that survives three thousand years, an ancient Minoan curse, and modern corruption. In ancient Minoan Crete, Daedalus fell in love with a herding girl named Nikkis. Yes, that Daedalus-the master mason who built the great Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete, who is said to have built the false cow in which the Minotaur was conceived, who is said to have constructed the labyrinth, who built working wings that lead to the death of his own son. Nikkis's love, intelligence, integrity, and irrepressible determination survive three thousand years of cursed existence into the present day. In modern Crete, her work as a researcher in ancient languages takes her to Greece. There, she her own fears and a curse she can't begin to understand. Only finding Daedalus, breaking their curse, and triumphing over corruption and international artifact smugglers will free them both from a cycle of pain and suffering set in motion by a corrupt king three thousand years ago.
