"Fast-paced, well-written and full of angst, PERFIDITAS was a very entertaining read!" - History Undressed Captain Carina Mitela of the Praetorian Guard Special Forces is in trouble. One colleague tries to slice her jugular. Another sets a trap to incriminate her in a conspiracy to topple the government of Roma Nova, the last Roman outpost in 21st century Europe, Proscribed and operating illegally, separated from her family and children, Carina risks being terminated by both security services and conspirators. Seeking help from a friend immersed in the crime world would wreck her marriage to the enigmatic Conrad. Is Carina strong enough to choose between being a great criminal or a great counterspy, and between two men - the sophisticated and amoral Apollodorus or the upright Praetorian commander Conradus, her children's father. And can she save her beloved Roma Nova and her own life in making those choices? Part conspiracy thriller, part military fiction, part a story of personal betrayal, this is Roman fiction brought up to the 21st century with a strong female protagonist with heart and courage leading the action. If you enjoy reading mystery books for women with plenty of twists, this is for you! "Surely I'm not the only one to think that these stories would make thrilling movie material?" - Amazon Top 500 reviewer - B.R.A.G. Medallion honoree - finalist in 2014 Writing Magazine Self-Published Book of the Year
Autorenporträt
Alison Morton writes award-winning thrillers featuring tough but compassionate heroines. Her ten-book Roma Nova series is set in an imaginary European country where a remnant of the Roman Empire has survived into the 21st century and is ruled by women who face conspiracy, revolution and heartache but use a sharp line in dialogue. The latest, EXSILIUM, plunges us back to the late 4th century, to the very foundation of Roma Nova. Six Roma Nova full-length novels have been awarded the BRAG Medallion. SUCCESSIO, AURELIA, INSURRECTIO and JULIA PRIMA have been selected as Historical Novel Society's Editors' Choices. AURELIA was a finalist in the HNS Indie Award. The Bookseller selected SUCCESSIO as Editor's Choice in its inaugural indie review. A 'Roman nut' since age 11, Alison has misspent decades clambering over Roman sites throughout Europe. She blends her fascination for Ancient Rome with six years' military service and a life of reading crime, historical and thriller fiction. On the way, she collected a BA in modern languages and an MA in history. She continues to blog about Romans and writing. Now she continues to write thrillers, cultivates a Roman herb garden and drinks wine in France with her husband.
