A gripping historical thriller and the third instalment in the Rome's Invincibles saga. The battle for control of Rome continues. Octavian has defeated and killed Caesar's assassins, but the road to absolute power is still long and treacherous. A threat now comes from Sextus Pompeius – a cunning pirate who rules the Italian coastline, terrorising Perugia's citizens. Suddenly, Civil War seems like child's play in comparison to a campaign against piracy. Octavian is close to defeat and death.

The final, gripping, instalment in "The Invincibles series". Octavian has revenged Caesar's name, and defeated the pirate Sextus Pompeius, but now he must ensure his complete rule of Rome.

He needs heirs, and he needs security, but he has the shadow of Mark Anthony breathing down his neck from Egypt.

Despite his young age, Octavian is already a consul. Yet his position is not yet consolidated, and he is yet to carry out his plans for revenge upon the murderers of his beloved adoptive father Julius Caesar. He makes powerful allies in Mark Antony and Lepidus with whom he forms a powerful triumvirate, and unleashes upon the streets of Rome a reign of terror. Soon two great armies, led by four renowned commanders, stand ready to clash in Macedonia, far from the city of Rome and its corruption.
