With Rome already teetering on the edge of rebellion, the invasion of Britannia on a knife edge, and all the members of the Occultum at risk, Senator Lepidus--the mastermind behind the elite team of exploratores --discovers a shocking betrayal within their ranks. The traitor's identity remains hidden, and with all his trusted agents already deployed deep behind enemy lines, Lepidus faces a crisis that threatens not only the success of the invasion but the very safety of the emperor. With no one left to trust, he turns to the one man he never thought he'd need: Veteranus, an ex-legionary shrouded in infamy. Brutal, ruthless, and once condemned to death for his savage methods, Veteranus is a wild card who bows to no authority. Now, in a desperate gamble, Lepidus must decide if this unpredictable lone wolf is the empire's last hope--or its greatest threat. Packed with action, intrigue, and the harsh realities of war, Veteranus delves deeper into the shadowy world of Rome's covert operatives.
