The Honour of Rome

A novel of courage, camaraderie, and deadly enemies from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Centurion and The Emperor's Exile.

But a gang led by an ex-legionary rules the city, demanding protection money and terrorizing those who won't pay up. Macro needs the back-up of Prefect Cato, but Cato is in distant Rome. As the streets run red with blood, the army's heroes face an enemy as merciless and cunning as any barbarian tribe.
