About this audiobook
In the decadent, dangerous twilight of the Roman Empire, a fiercely devoted priestess harbors a secret that could mean her brutal execution. Bound by a sacred oath of eternal chastity, she finds herself drawn to the forbidden teachings of a rising, underground faith. As the shadow of imperial persecution falls over the city, she must choose between the ancient gods of her ancestors and the dangerous truth echoing in her heart. Her spiritual awakening is fraught with peril, culminating in a desperate bid for freedom and salvation. This sweeping historical epic blends religious tension with breathtaking mortal danger.
