In ancient Rome, silence can be as dangerous as betrayal.
The noblewoman's household has survived its first test of political intrigue-but survival has drawn attention. Powerful figures now watch, waiting for mistakes. Silence and discretion are no longer enough. Compliance is demanded. Influence carries a cost.
