As Rome's war with Carthage continues, two friends - now on
opposing sides - confront each other in one of the most brutal
sieges of all time. A new Hannibal novel by the Sunday Times
bestselling author of The Forgotten Legion series. 213 BC.
Syracuse. Under the merciless Sicilian sun, a city is at war.
Outside the walls, a vast Roman army waits. Yet the city's
incredible defences, designed by Archimedes, mean that Syracuse
will not be taken easily. A veteran of the bitter war since its
beginning, Quintus is ready to give his life in the service of the
Republic. But dangers face him from within his own ranks as well as
from the enemy - who include his former friend, the Carthaginian,
Hanno. Hanno has been sent by his general Hannibal to aid Syracuse
in its fight against Rome. Pledged to bring death to all Romans, he
is diverted from his mission by the discovery of Quintus' sister
Aurelia, a captive within the city. Two friends on opposing sides.
A woman caught between them. They are about to meet in one of the
most brutal sieges of all time. Who will survive?
