The corruption and treachery of Roman-occupied Britain closes in on the newly wed Gaius Petreius Ruso.
Gaius Petreius Ruso’s family is in trouble, and Ruso rushes home to Gaul with Tilla only to find that no one wrote him. Then Severus, the family’s chief creditor, winds up dead, and the real trouble begins…
Everybody’s favorite general is leading an outnumbered Roman-Persian force to check Malwa aggression in the east, forced to action by the fiends’ sea-borne invasion of the Tigris-Euphrates delta and their subsequent siege of Babylon.
Gaius Petreius Ruso has volunteered for a posting with the army even deeper into Britannia. Only it’s in Tilla’s homeland where her people are implicated in a grisly murder.
An unforgettable tale of a friendship between two women, one with surprising twists and turns, and one that is ultimately a revelation of the finest parts of the human spirit.
To free the world from the grip of the Horvath is going to take an unlikely hero. A hero unwilling to back down to alien or human governments, unwilling to live in slavery and with enough hubris, if not stature, to think he can win. Fortunately, there’s Tyler Vernon. And he has bigger plans than just getting rid of the Horvath.
Divorced and down-on his luck, Gaius Petrius Ruso is an army doctor who intends to seek his fortune in an inclement outpost of the Roman Empire, namely Britannia. Then he rescues an injured slave girl, Tilla and gets caught up in the investigation into the deaths of prostitutes working out of the local bar.
