Description
Rome 37AD. The emperor's life hangs in the balance, and with it, the fate of the empire. As Tiberius thrusts Caligula's family into the imperial succession, the course of history is forever altered. A new perspective emerges from within the imperial court: that of Livilla, Caligula's youngest sister and confidante. She reveals a more nuanced picture of her brother, one who was both loved and feared in equal measure. Through Livilla's eyes, we witness the transformation of a young man into a powerful tyrant, driven by lies, murder, and betrayal. As Rome is reshaped by Caligula's rule, the true nature of its most infamous emperor is revealed. A story of power, family, and the corrupting influence of ambition.
