Description
Rome, 799 AD. A brutal attack on Pope Leo sets off a chain of events that will take him to the heart of intrigue and deception.
When Sigwulf, a Saxon prince banished from his homeland, arrives in Rome as a spy, he uncovers a complex web of lies and secrets. The only clue to the attackers' identity is an intricate gold buckle, which he links with a mysterious gold warrior flagon found in the Pope's chamberlain.
A gripping tale of espionage, betrayal, and murder unfolds as Sigwulf navigates the treacherous landscape of 9th-century Rome.
