Midwinter 218 BC the 'Lion's Cubs' are loose in the 'She Wolf's' den.Hannibal and the Carthaginian army, victorious from the battle of Ticinus seek further combat with the Romans. Publius Scipio and his Legions, shocked at their defeat, have fallen back and encamped beside the River Trebbia, awaiting reinforcement by his Co-Consul, Tiberius Sempronius Longus and his army.Baldor, newly promoted and on a recruiting mission amongst the Gallic tribes, becomes embroiled in a murderous skirmish and blood feud between the Cenomani and Lingone Gauls. Meanwhile, Hannibal begins baiting his trap and setting an ambush by the Trebbia using the intemperate, impulsive character of Tiberius to lure the Legions to battle. Baldor fights at the Trebbia amidst freezing temperatures and hailstorms, the Romans losing thousands, he losing more comrades while once again encountering his nemesis, Cornelius Scipio.In Carthage, Baldor's powerful enemy continues to seek his demise, issuing a new warrant for his arrest. Hidden within a Gallic unit, safe from Carthaginian authorities and his enemy's spleen, he's given command of a raiding force tasked with destruction of the Cenomani fortress, Victumulae.As battle turns to blood feud, he must use weapon skills and his wits if he's to survive and be victorious.
