About this audiobook

In the treacherous political landscape of ancient Rome, a ruthless favorite manipulates his way toward the pinnacle of imperial power. Armed with cunning and devoid of morals, he eliminates his rivals one by one, whispering poison into the ear of a paranoid emperor. But ambition of this magnitude breeds deadly enemies, and the climb to the top is fraught with lethal traps. This chilling tragedy masterfully depicts the corrupting influence of absolute power and the inevitable ruin that follows hubris. It is a tense, historical thriller of betrayal and bloody retribution.
