In the shadow of a rising empire, an ancient city teeters on the brink of destruction. Veii, a jewel of the Etruscan League, faces an implacable foe in the form of expansionist Rome, but the true danger may lie within its own walls.
Larth, a young haruspex in training at the Temple of Voltumna, finds his world upturned by ominous prophecies and a web of political intrigue. As Rome's legions gather on the horizon, Larth uncovers a conspiracy that threatens to tear Veii apart from within-a secret cult, long-forgotten gods, and a betrayal that strikes at the heart of his city's leadership. Thrust into a desperate race against time, Larth must master his divinatory skills, forge unlikely alliances, and unlock the secrets of the Oculus of Tarchon, a powerful Etruscan artifact that could be Veii's only hope. But can he unravel the threads of treachery before Rome's shadow engulfs everything he holds dear?
