Rome, 66 AD, the end of the murderous reign of the vicious Emperor Nero. As plots and informers proliferate, and the emperor embarks on a ruthless purge of his enemies, Titus - charming, talented and utterly unscrupulous - is determined to climb to the top. He spins his web for Mita, the beautiful young daughter of the famous general Corbulo, but with schemer and victim helplessly attracted to each other, events soon spiral out of his control.When Nero dies the great empire descends into chaos and civil war, while a savage rebellion breaks out in Judea. Both Titus and Mita will be tested to their limits: he in a bloody campaign of siege warfare, culminating in the apocalyptic destruction of Jerusalem and the burning of its famous temple, she in a desperate struggle against another, more insidious predator: the repulsive, avaricious Lamia.Corbulo's Daughter is the sensational first volume of the Flavian Trilogy, which charts the rise and fall of a dynasty, from the death of Nero through the eruption of Vesuvius and the destruction of Pompeii to the mysterious assassination that ends it all. "I love this book in so many ways. The writing is sublime, the characters superbly drawn, the narrative utterly propulsive. The story has such a strong air of authenticity about it."Mark Mills, author of award-winning The Whaleboat House and n° 1 bestseller The Savage Garden.
