Britannia, AD 100. Ferox is summoned towards Londinium, but a murder at Vindolanda forces him to investigate before he can leave the frontier. The killing soon points beyond an isolated crime to plots involving soldiers, officials and tribal politics.

The trail carries Ferox towards Mona and the power struggles among the Brigantes. The novel uses murder investigation to explore how Rome’s northern rule depends on informers, client leaders, veterans and men who can move between Roman and local worlds.
