Lucius Falerius is dead, and Rome in its entirety mourns the
passing of its most powerful senator. It falls to his young son
Marcellus to carry out his father’s legacy and restore the rights
promised to the defeated Sicilian slaves, yet there are those who
will not see the honour of Rome compromised and the slaves
assuaged. On the Roman border provinces there is also trouble, and
the legions move north to neutralize the threat posed by the Celts.
The confederation of Celtic tribes is united under one chieftain,
the formidable and unpredictable Brennos, but a plot is being
crafted to see him dead and the confederation broken. For Brennos,
the treachery comes from within his own family, for which he will
exact a brutal and bloody revenge. Meanwhile Aquila, accompanied by
his ‘nephew,’ Fabius, finds himself under the command of a
young tribune who bears the same name as the man responsible for
the death of his old friend and mentor. And still there remains the
question of the eagle charm he wears around his neck—the only
clue as to his real identity.
