About this audiobook
Rome, AD 120. The Empire runs on secrets. Lucan Vale runs on bad ideas. When an archive clerk steals one page he was not meant to see, he runs straight into Lucan's tavern carrying half a transfer order and the men who want it back. Within hours, a rogue, a clerk, a furious noblewoman, and two dangerous thieves are running through Rome together toward a conspiracy hidden behind the Blue Door.
