For nearly a decade, the Roman Empire has fought to assert its hold over Britannia. Relentless opposition from native tribes, led by fanatical King Caratacus, has worn down the men of the legions. Two of the army's most courageous and loyal soldiers are dispatched from Rome to aid the campaign: Prefect Cato and Centurion Macro. Placed in command of an outpost in the remote western mountains, they face a challenge even more deadly than the unremitting attacks of the barbarian forces. For they must wrench control of the fort from Centurion Quertus, a man who wages a savage personal war and inspires a loyalty in his men above their bond with Rome. Quertus will stop at nothing to remove the interlopers. With dangerous enemies on both sides, Cato and Macro face the fight of their lives to bring peace to the most perilous frontier of the Empire.
