A compelling new mystery for Libertus, set against the
backdrop of the Roman Empire in turmoil . .
.
An astonishing new order has usurped power
in Rome and the reverberations are reaching even to Glevum,
where the legion is preparing to depart. Libertus’s wealthy
patron, until recently one of the most influential men in
the Empire, finds himself not only deprived of the privilege
and protection he had previously enjoyed, but under actual
threat both from the political establishment in Rome and
from an anonymous and vindictive enemy much closer to
home.
The murder of another councillor, similarly
placed, makes the matter urgent. Libertus, whose humbler
status affords obscurity, is charged with spiriting Marcus’s
young family away to a place of safety. But his task will
bring problems of its own, as Libertus uncovers a grisly
secret and an ancient crime – with ramifications stretching
to the present day.
