And the Roman leader has an audacious plan to capture Dinpaladyr, the barbarians'' fortress of spears. <br><br>Marcus Aquila - burning for revenge on an enemy that has killed one of his best friends - rides north with the Petriana cavalry. He believes his disguise as Centurion Corvus of the 2nd Tungrians is still holding. <br><br>But he is just a few days ahead of two of the emperor''s agents, sent from Rome to kill him. Pitiless assassins who know his real name, and too much about his friends.</P>
