Book Overview

Endorsed by New York Times bestselling authors Terry Brooks and Tess Gerritsen, with an introduction by New York Times bestselling author, Blake Crouch. 156 readers give it 3.5 stars - some love it, some find it challenging. A Vestal Virgin in Nero's Rome, torn between sacred vows, a mad emperor's obsession, and a forbidden faith.

Elissa Rubria Honoria is a Vestal Virgin--priestess of the sacred flame, a visionary, and one of the most powerful women in Rome. Vestals are sacrosanct, sworn to chastity on penalty of death, but the emperor, Nero, holds himself above the law. He pursues Elissa, engaging her in a deadly game of wits and sexuality. Or is Elissa really the pursuer? She stumbles on dark secrets. No longer trusting Roman gods, she follows a new god, Jesus of Nazareth, jeopardizing her life and the future of The Roman Empire.

This novel includes mature themes and suggestive scenes (not graphic) consistent with Nero's historical depravity. Reader discretion advised.
