Spring, 38 AD. Far from the intrigues of Caligula's Rome, the legion fortress of Carnuntum stands alone against the forested wilderness across the Danube River. Ex-Army tribune Marcus Carinna waits nearby for his beloved, the Germanic priestess Aurima. Stunned by treason in his family, he sees one hope of earning back his honor: to recover a lost legion's sacred Eagle captured by rebels. He needs Aurima's help to succeed - but after promising months ago to win the support of her chieftain father, a brutal enemy of Rome, she still hasn't returned.

It's AD 37. In this story of secrecy and betrayal, Caligula Caesar has just become Rome's new master.
