Soon Falco finds himself swept from the perilous back alleys of Ancient Rome to the silver mines of distant Britain-and up against a cabal of traitors with blood on their hands and no compunction whatsoever to do away with a snooping plebe like Falco…. Matters just get more complicated when Falco meets Helena Justina, a Senator's daughter who is connected to the very same traitors he has sworn to expose. For Sosia bears a heavy burden: as heavy as a pile of stolen Imperial ingots, in fact. She confesses to him that she is fleeing for her life, and Falco makes the rash decision to rescue her-a decision he will come to regret. When Marcus Didius Falco, a Roman "informer" who has a nose for trouble that's sharper than most, encounters Sosia Camillina in the Forum, he senses immediately all is not right with the pretty girl.
