About This Book
Ancient Rome. One poisoned groom. One scandalous trial. One courtroom that could unravel the empire.
In the year 45 BC, just as Julius Caesar's grip on Rome tightens, a high-society wedding ends in shocking tragedy. Lucius Scaurus, young, handsome, and heir to influence, drops dead at his own pre-wedding banquet.
When the bride's mother, Helvia, is accused not just of murder, but of incest, the whispers of Rome turn to roars. Only one man dares to take her defense: the legendary orator Cicero.
