Description

In Roman Britain, Centurion Flavius Ferox is sent to command the troubled garrison at Vindolanda, where disgruntled soldiers and simmering local tensions threaten to ignite. When a public official is found murdered in the fort’s latrine, Ferox is drawn into a dangerous investigation just as the prospect of war with Dacia—and the ambitions of Emperor Trajan’s cousin, Hadrian—raises the stakes. As rebels and Romans collide, Ferox must navigate shifting loyalties, political intrigue, and mounting violence while fighting to protect those closest to him. Combining meticulous historical detail with hard-edged military action and suspense, the novel explores duty, power, loyalty, and survival on the volatile frontier of the Roman Empire.
