***********************************


TO SAVE ROME HE MUST PLACE HIS TRUST IN ANOTHER.


Sebastos Pantera
, known to his many enemies as the Leopard and something of a lone wolf, is the spy the Emperor Nero uses only for the most challenging and important of missions. His next mission: to find the most dangerous man in Rome’s empire and bring him to bloody justice.

His prey is cunning, subtle and ruthless. Saulos has pledged to bring about the destruction of Rome and her provinces and now fate, good luck and planning have given him the means to do so.

The brilliance of Saulos’ plan will be difficult to combat, but Pantera has a new ally: a king in the making who could change the future of his people – a man he can finally trust. If they work together, they could bring a province back from the edge of ruin.

But first, they must attempt the impossible; an assault on an invulnerable fortress, where failure means death to them both.

The story continues in Rome: The Eagle of the Twelfth. Have you read Rome: The Emperor’s Spy, where the story begins?
