Description
The Flame and the Wind by John Blackburn In 37 A.D., Rome faces a grave threat from a new religion that could undermine its very foundations. As one of the Empire's top spies, Sextus Marcellus Ennius is dispatched to Jerusalem to investigate this cult and discredit its founder. However, as he delves deeper into the mystery, Sextus will encounter dangers on all sides: the intrigues of the mad Emperor Caligula, traitors among his fellow Romans, and murderous religious zealots. The truth he uncovers will be more terrifying than he could have ever imagined. A masterful blend of historical fiction, mystery, and horror, The Flame and the Wind is a gripping pacey read that showcases John Blackburn's unique style.
