Sixteen-year-old Vespasian leaves his family estate for Rome, hoping to find patronage and begin the public career expected of a young Roman noble. Instead he enters a capital dominated by Tiberius’s absence and Sejanus’s control of the Praetorian Guard. When conspiracy and danger force him away from Rome, Vespasian takes up a military posting on the Balkan frontier, where political intrigue follows him into his first experience of command and combat.
