✦ Synopsis


Vindobona—Roman legionary camp and civilian town on the Limes, the fortified northern border of the Empire, in the second century AD:

Thanar, a shady merchant and disgraced son of a Germanic chieftain, is accused of the murder of a Roman officer. Before he can even try to prove his innocence, he himself almost gets killed by an assassin on a nocturnal street.
The trail leads to a well-known slave trader in whose villa the rich and powerful of Vindobona indulge in luxury—with lavish food, rich wines, and the most beautiful girls in the province.
Soon, further respected citizens of Vindobona start losing their lives…
