    About this ebook

    Marko has been the friend, and then the servant, of the Pontifex Hadrian for many years - first as a young man adventuring in the far lands of the empire, then in the dark corridors of the Pontifex's court. As storm clouds gather, Marko may have to make the ultimate sacrifice - that of his identity.
