Summary
It is the eight hundred and twenty-first year of the Roman city, a time marked by ill omens and growing turmoil. The Emperor is ruthless, ever watchful for signs of rebellion. The grain supply is dwindling, and hunger grips the people. Romans are turning to foreign cults, as their ancient deities appear uncaring. In this perilous climate, Marcus is focused on two things: his verse, and satisfying his patron Artus. But when Artus sends him to seek a confidential answer from an oracle, Marcus is drawn into a web of conspiracies, politics, and a woman he has tried to leave behind.
