Accanto ai tesori saccheggiati ci sono le numerose troiane fatte prigioniere, tra cui la leggendaria profetessa Cassandra, preda e concubina del re Agamennone, e la sua vigile ancella Ritsa, la guaritrice che ha perso tutto ed è ormai solo una schiava.

Troie est tombée. Les soldats grecs ont remporté leur guerre acharnée. Ils peuvent rentrer chez eux couverts de gloire et de trophées : or, armes, femmes. Mais les dieux, offensés par ces années de sanglants combats, en ont décidé autrement. Les vents contraires se lèvent, retenant les navires dans l'ombre de la cité détruite. Pour Briséis, la reine déchue qui porte à présent l'enfant d'Achille, et pour toutes les Troyennes, une longue attente s'annonce, mais peut-être aussi la chance, au cœur de cette guerre d'hommes, de changer le cours de l'Histoire.

Quando Lirnesso viene conquistata dai Greci, Briseide, sopravvissuta al massacro della sua famiglia, viene portata via dalla città come un trofeo e consegnata ad Achille. A diciannove anni diventa concubina, schiava, infermiera, assecondando qualunque necessità dell'eroe splendente. Ma non è sola. Insieme a lei innumerevoli donne vengono strappate dalle loro case e consegnate ai guerrieri nemici. Ed è così che confinate nell'accampamento - e nella tenda di Achille - Briseide e le sue compagne assistono alla guerra di Troia e raccontano ciò che vedono.

Troia è caduta e i greci, vittoriosi, fremono per rientrare in patria. Per farlo hanno bisogno del buon vento per l'Egeo, che tarda ad arrivare: gli dèi sono offesi poiché il corpo di re Priamo giace insepolto e profanato. I vincitori rimangono cosí in prossimità della città saccheggiata, insieme alle donne che hanno rapito.
