Description
Rome, AD 27. Gaius Valerius Carbo has returned to the heart of the Empire after 25 years serving in the legions. He just wants to retire in peace. But his world is turned upside down when local thugs attack the tavern where he is resting, and he finds himself caught up in a fight that puts him at the centre of a new battle. As Carbo navigates this treacherous landscape, he discovers that his childhood friend Rufa has been sold into slavery and is on the run from her mistress, Elissa. A powerful priestess with a sinister plan to destroy Rome from within, Elissa will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. Can Carbo protect Rufa - and Rome - from her evil plan? With its superb characterisation, great action, and lovely attention to detail, 'Watchmen of Rome' is a gripping historical fiction novel that explores the complexities of life in ancient Rome.
