Thracia, AD30: Even after four years military service at the edge
of the Roman world, Vespasian can't escape the tumultuous politics
of an Empire on the brink of disintegration. His patrons in Rome
have charged him with the clandestine extraction of an old enemy
from a fortress on the banks of the Danube before it falls to the
Roman legion besieging it. Vespasian's mission is the key move in a
deadly struggle for the right to rule the Roman Empire. The man he
has been ordered to seize could be the witness that will destroy
Sejanus, commander of the Praetorian Guard and ruler of the Empire
in all but name. Before he completes his mission, Vespasian will
face ambush in snowbound mountains, pirates on the high seas, and
Sejanus's spies all around him. But by far the greatest danger lies
at the rotten heart of the Empire, at the nightmarish court of
Tiberius, Emperor of Rome and debauched, paranoid madman.
