Summary
Britain, 44 CE. Centurion Macro and newly appointed Centurion Cato are ordered by Vespasian to mould the men of Verica, ruler of the Atrebates, into an army that can protect him, enforce his rule, and take on the increasingly ambitious… raids that the enemy is launching. But despite the Atrebates' official allegiance to Rome, many are wary of the legions and want to resist the Roman invaders, and Macro and Cato must first win the loyalty of the disgruntled levies before tackling the enemy without. Can they succeed while surviving a deadly plot to destroy both them and their comrades serving with the eagles? Sequel to "When the eagle hunts" (DC39137); followed by "The eagle's prey". Explicit descriptions of violence and explicit strong language. 2003. (Eagle series ; 4)
