Beyond the Wall

Britannia. A conquered land.

Running. Weeping. Blood on her lips.

Blood in her mouth.

Blood that is not her own.

After maiming her master, Cassia has no choice but to run. Beyond the river, fair to the north, stands Hadrian's Wall - the furthest limit of the mighty Roman Empire. And beyond the wall? Freedom. With dogs on her trail and a bounty on her head, the journey seems impossible. But then Cassia meets Marcus - slick, slippery, sliver-tongued - a true and perfect son of Rome. And her only hope.
