ROME 46 BCDreaming of service to the great Gaius Julius Caesar, the young Tuscan knight, Quintus Dellius, secures thepatronage of the youngest of his generals, the dissolute Cornelius Dolabella. Dellius distinguishes himself inCaesar's Spanish war against Pompey, becomes a tribune of cavalry in Caesar's army and looks forward to anassured and glittering career.But when his hero is assassinated the Roman republic is plunged into chaos as both his heirs and enemiesjostle for power. In the civil wars that follow, Dellius is soon caught up in a maelstrom of shifting allegiancesand the young soldier will need to discover reserves of both tenacity and ruthlessness if he is to survive.As he journeys from the orgiastic salons of Rome's Palatine Hill to the Palaces of Alexandria, the rockyfortresses of Judea and the bloody field of Philippi, he manages to incur the enmity both of Egypt's queen andRome's future emperor, but also to snare the affections of a beautiful and cunning young senator's wife, LiviaDrusilla.
