Produktbeschreibung

Imperial agent Numidianus gets more trouble than he can handle when recruiting barbarian informers. The fiery Alemanna Gunda agrees to testify before an imperial hearing pitting the bookish Caesar Julian against his resentful general. But is Gunda's evidence backing Julian only a self-serving lie?
And when Julian's campaign to cleanse Gaul of Alemanni settlers endangers Gunda's chieftain father, Marcus must use all his wits to manage the volatile beauty who holds the key that may save Numidianus' entire service.

A thrilling espionage adventure set in the post-Constantine era, "The Deadly Caesar" plunges Marcus Gregorianus Numidianus deeper into the tensions between the heirs to an overstretched Roman Empire and encroaching border peoplesall of them embers of an empire blindly smoldering toward extinction.

Packed with action and intrigue, the Embers of Empire series is delighting fans of Bernard Cornwell, Steven Saylor, and Robert Harris.
