Description
Rome 37AD. The emperor's health is failing, and with it, the balance of power in the empire shifts dramatically. When Tiberius thrusts Caligula's family into the imperial succession, he sets in motion events that will change the course of history forever. A new perspective on one of history's most infamous rulers emerges through the eyes of Livilla, Caligula's youngest sister and confidante. Her account offers a fresh look at the life and reign of this enigmatic figure, challenging long-held assumptions about his character and legacy. As Rome teeters on the brink of chaos, Livilla recounts her brother's rise to power, marked by lies, murder, and betrayal. A gripping narrative that sheds new light on the tumultuous world of ancient Rome.
