AD 58. BRITANNIA. TENSION IS SIMMERING. DANGER LIES ROUND EVERY CORNER FOR ROME' S BRAVE SOLDIERS . . . Fifteen years after Rome' s invasion of Britannia, centurion Marco is back. The island is settled now, bustling with commerce. Macro' s goal is to help run his mother' s Londinium inn, and exploit his land grant. He' s prepared for the dismal weather and the barbaric ways of the people. But far worse dangers threaten all his plans. A gang led by an ex-legionary rules the city, demanding protection money and terrorising those who won' t pay up. The Roman official in charge has turned a blind eye. Macro has to act. He needs the back-up of the finest soldier he knows: Prefect Cato. But Cato is in distant Rome. Or is he? As the streets run red with blood, the army' s heroes face an enemy as merciless and cunning as any barbarian tribe. The honour of Rome is in their hands . . . For readers of Bernard Cornwell, Conn Iggulden and Ben Kane - unputdownable fiction from an author who knows the Roman world like no other.
