Gaius Valerius Verrens returns to Rome from the successful campaign against Boudicca in Britain. And neither is Rome the same city as the one he left. Now hailed a 'Hero of Rome', Valerius is not the man he once was - scarred both physically and emotionally by the battles he has fought, his sister is mortally ill, his father in self-imposed exile.
Those who seek power for themselves whisper darkly in the emperor's ears. The Emperor Nero grows increasingly paranoid. They speak of a new threat, one found within the walls of Rome itself.
A new religious sect, the followers of Christus, deny Nero's divinity and are rumoured to be spreading sedition. Nero calls on his 'Hero of Rome' to become a 'Defender of Rome', to seek out this rebel sect, to capture their leader, a man known as Petrus. Failure would be to forfeit his life, and the lives of twenty thousands Judaeans living in Rome.
But as Valerius begins his search, a quest which will take him to the edge of the empire, he will discover that success may cost him nearly as much as failure.
