An impregnable fortress. A fleet to build in record time. A deadly betrayal in the shipyards of Rome.
Spring, 49 BC. Civil war between Julius Caesar and Gnaeus Pompey is tearing the Republic apart. Caesar must march to Hispania, but on his route stands the defiant city-state of Massilia. To prevail, he needs command of the sea. The order to Rome is absolute: build an unstoppable fleet faster than anyone believes possible.
Beneath the towering arches of the Navalia of Ostia, the magistrate Marcus Aemilius Lepidus and the master shipwright Diodorus enter a brutal race against time. Together, they must bring to life colossal Roman quinqueremes: floating fortresses soon known as the Titans.
But the most ruthless threat is not waiting on the open sea.
As the titanic hulls take shape, an invisible shadow falls over the shipyards. The expedition begins to falter. The lives of the men who build the fleet hang by a thread. Hostile silences. Buried secrets. Lethal deception.
Lepidus must unravel the web of a hidden betrayal before the epic naval battle of Tauroenta. The fate of the Roman world will be decided at sea.
In this explosive new chapter of A Caesar's Knight Story, Marco Palaferri pulls readers into a fast-paced historical thriller of loyalty, ingenuity, and sacrifice.
Victory always exacts its tribute.
