Separately, they decide to send Vespasian east to Armenia to defend Rome's interests. Rumours abound that Claudius' wife Agrippina is involved in a plot to destabilise the East. Meanwhile, a new Jewish cult is flourishing and its adherents refuse to swear loyalty to the Emperor. In Armenia, Vespasian is captured. Immured in the oldest city on earth, how can he escape? And is a Rome ruled by Agrippina any safer than a prison cell? THE FIFTH BOOK IN THE BESTSELLING VESPASIAN SERIES
