Britain and Rome, AD 211. Septimius Severus is dying at Eboracum, leaving Caracalla and Geta to inherit an empire neither is willing to share. Silus, now a centurion and Arcani operative, is drawn from the northern campaign into the guarded households and competing commands surrounding the succession.
When Caracalla moves against his brother, intelligence work becomes participation in a dynastic purge. Silus must decide which orders preserve Rome and which merely protect an emperor, while Julia Domna and the praetorian establishment struggle to contain the consequences of Geta’s murder.
