THE ROMAN ARMY HAS VANQUISHED THE REBEL TRIBES' ALLIANCE IN NORTH BRITANNIA.
THE SURVIVORS LIE IN WAIT, PLOTTING REVENGE . . .
But the new Roman leader will not let them rest. He forms an audacious plan to capture the Selgovaes' fortress of spears, and return it to the hands of a trusted ally.
Marcus Aquila - burning for revenge on an enemy army that slaughtered one of his best friends - is part of the select group of infantry chosen to go north and take the fort before the rebel army can reach it.
But he is just a few days ahead of two of the emperor's agents, sent from Rome to kill him. Pitiless assassins who will stop at nothing to silence him, one and for all.
A pulse-pounding adventure from one of the biggest names in historical adventure fiction, to delight fans of Bernard Cornwell, Simon Scarrow and Conn Iggulden.
