Seal of Rome

Every subject serves Rome. Only a few can save it. An aristocrat. A slave. A pair of disgraced soldiers. And a legendary general. Five strangers. One secret war. When an elite gladiator defies death in the arena, his shocking victory earns him more than glory—it draws him into the heart of a secret mission that could change the fate of the Empire. Hardened by brutality and betrayal, Jason is recruited into a covert task force to stop an insidious coup from toppling Rome from within. Joining him are Mallia, a senator's daughter suffocating in privilege; Argus and Tacitus, ex-legionnaires cast out by the very army they swore to serve; and Severus, a retired general and the Emperor's most trusted ally. Together, they are reborn as the Septem Fideles—seven loyal ones—and sworn to protect Rome from the shadows. As rebellion stirs and enemies close in, loyalties are tested, forbidden love ignites, and ancient powers threaten to awaken. The Empire's fate rests on the shoulders of five outcasts who must fight as one . . . or fall divided. Seal of Rome is a sweeping tale of heroes and villains, betrayal and sacrifice, forbidden love and unrelenting suspense.
