Description
Returning to duty with Rome’s Twentieth Legion in Britain, army doctor Gaius Petreius Ruso is drawn into a disturbing series of unexplained injuries and deaths. As he investigates, the evidence leads him toward the celebrated Centurion Geminus—and toward the political currents surrounding the anticipated arrival of Emperor Hadrian. Set against the tensions of Roman-occupied Britain, this historical mystery combines sharp medical detection, military intrigue, and vivid period detail in a compelling story of loyalty, ambition, and hidden danger.
