Brought to you by Penguin.
From the Sunday Times best-selling author Manda Scott, a high-octane, stirring and exciting historical adventure full of intrigue and action. Perfect for fans of Simon Scarrow, Robert Harris and Conn Iggulden.
AD 64. Rome is burning. Only one man can save it.
The emperor: Nero, emperor of Rome and feared by his subjects for his temper and cruelty, is in possession of an ancient document predicting that Rome will burn.
The spy: Sebastos Pantera, assassin and spy for the Roman Legions, is ordered to stop the impending cataclysm. He knows that if he doesn't, his life - and that of thousands of others - is in terrible danger.
The chariot boy: Math, a young charioteer, subject to the wiles and schemes of the emperor and the spy.
Who will win this game, where death stalks the drivers - on the track and off it?
