Summary
Old certainties have vanished. Laws are flouted, norms discarded. The Senate, once the Republic’s proudest institution, cowers under the shadow of brute force. This is not Washington. This is Rome, 27 BCE.
As Rome bleeds itself dry with civil wars and ruthless ambition, two figures who were previously relegated to historical footnotes fight to hold things together. Octavia, sister to Rome’s rising first emperor, and Agrippa, that emperor’s loyal friend and brilliant commander, stand firm against chaos and betrayal.
Bound by loyalty, love, and a vision for a better Rome, they navigate shifting alliances and simmering conspiracies from the heart of the capital to the far reaches of the Mediterranean. But as Augustus’ true ambitions come to light, they must face a final question: when power is absolute, how far will loyalty bend before it breaks? This is the story of the fall of the Roman Republic.
