Synopsis
In the year A.D. 83, after seven years of campaigning in Britain, the Roman general Agricola marched north to the Caledonians Highlands to subdue the tribes before turning his full attention on Ireland. At a place called Mons Graupius he was met by Calgacus and 30,000 of the Cruithne Highlanders. After a bloody battle the native clans vanished into the night. Later a naked and beguiling pagan girl is taken captive among others and forced to serve as Agricola's mistress. Always there is the sinister and evil Urbicus with ambitions, and the child he hates born into servitude whose final destiny is but a small part in the mounting suspense evolving around the beautiful Alecia and the men of destiny in her life. And Domitian, like Nero with his unpredictable temperament hovers like a menace above all those he suspects might oppose his will or demands. After some two decades, the ultimate conquest of Ireland still depends on the subjugation of the stubborn Caledonian tribes, and once again
