Usurpers: a Novel of the Late Roman Empire (The Embers of Empire) (Volume 2)
Q. V. Hunter
In this second volume of the "Embers of Empires" series, Roman intelligence agent Marcus must escape the court of Emperor Constans when he uncovers the humiliating secret of the young ruler's vice-ridden entourage. His flight pitches him into a more dangerous assignment--to investigate a military conspiracy to usurp Constans' throne. Worse, this mission means spying on the very man whose trust Marcus craves more than anything. Moving from the Late Roman imperial courts to Mursa, the bloodiest battleground of fourth century Europe, the ex-slave must outwit Gallo-Roman rebels, vicious imperial siblings and ruthless espionage rivals--all of them embers of an empire blindly smoldering towards extinction. Packed with action and intrigue, "Usurpers" is sure to delight fans of Steven Saylor, Robert Harris and Bernard Cornwell.
