Historical
218 BC. Imperial Rome and mighty Carthage are on the verge of a final, devastating battle for control of Europe. In their midst, one lone fighter battles against impossible odds... Strabo is sworn to no one; he knows no justice except his sword. Now the rootless mercenary has joined the Asturians, a band of tribesmen from what will one day be called Spain.. Their offer: infiltrate Hannibal's army, poised to invade Rome through the Alps, and rescue their kidnapped kinswoman from slavery. The reward - treasure beyond reckoning. Strabo is ready for Carthage's ferocious, thousands-strong army and Hannibal's elite guard. the attack that will take him by surprise will be on his own warrior-hardened heart. Amid the savage chaos of combat, this soldier of fortune must choose between gold and two things he's never felt before - loyalty and love.
