Book synopsis

Travel to the heart of a Roman dynasty beset by power struggles and betrayal in this latest chapter of the tale of Nero

AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER IN PAPERBACK NOW
__________

The boy Nero lives. His mother Agrippina has married her way to power, tangling the Emperor Claudius in her skirts.

The emperor may have a son and heir of his own, but Agrippina sees no obstacles to her ambition.

Rome is a path through a marsh, lit by torches. Those who walk it are always one step from disaster - and the road itself is treacherous, slippery with blood.

Claudius may have the world at his feet, but he has Agrippina in his bed.
