Under Trajan, Rome's armies push through Dacia and into the eastern provinces. Vix, once a gladiator's son, seeks advancement through military service, while the senator's daughter Sabina rejects the restricted future expected of an aristocratic woman.
Their loyalties to Trajan bring them into conflict with Hadrian, whose political ambition is supported by the imperial women around him. War, marriage and the uncertain succession draw Vix and Sabina into the transition from Trajan's expansion to Hadrian's rule.
