Rome in AD 69 has already recognised Galba, Otho and Vitellius as emperors, while Vespasian is proclaimed in the eastern provinces. Sebastos Pantera returns to the capital to win commanders, officials and military units to Vespasian’s cause before rival armies decide the future of the empire by force.
Bribery, blackmail, coded messages and disguise become weapons in a civil war fought inside the city as well as on the battlefield. When Pantera discovers a traitor close to his own network, the struggle for imperial succession becomes a personal contest between spies, with Rome itself as the prize.
