The Deadly Caesar by Q V Hunter

The Deadly Caesar by Q V Hunter

Imperial agent Numidianus gets more trouble than he can handle when recruiting barbarian informers. The fiery Alemanna Gunda agrees to testify before an imperial hearing pitting the bookish Caesar Julian against his resentful general. But is Gunda's evidence backing Julian only a self-serving lie? And when Julian's campaign to cleanse Gaul of Alemanni settlers endangers Gunda's chieftain father, Marcus must use all his wits to manage the volatile beauty who holds the key that may save Numidianus' entire service. A thrilling espionage adventure set in the post-Constantine era, The Deadly Caesar plunges Marcus Gregorianus Numidianus deeper into the tensions between the heirs to an overstretched Roman Empire and encroaching border peoples-all of them embers of an empire blindly smoldering toward extinction. Packed with action and intrigue, the Embers of Empire series is delighting fans of Bernard Cornwell, Steven Saylor, and Robert Harris.

Q.V. Hunter is the author of twelve novels, including six Embers of Empire stories of espionage in the Roman Empire of the fourth century, the most recent published in February, 2016. Hunter lives in a Jurassien village which was once a lookout point for Roman soldiers posted to Julius Caesar's colony Noviodunum. They were assigned the resettlement and administration of Celtic Helvetic 'barbarians' defeated in the Battle of Bibracte in 58 BC. Hunter is married to a descendant of Alemanni refugees of the Roman Empire and they have three adult children.
