Ancient Rome, 50 AD.
Young Lucius is alive. His mother, Agrippina, secures his future and path to power through her marriage to Emperor Claudius. Though more intelligent than her previous husbands, Claudius submits to her every whim for a time. He may have a son and heir of his own, and the whole world at his feet, but he also has the ruthless Agrippina in his bed.
Thus, Lucius is adopted into the imperial family and becomes Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus.
This is only the first of many moves in the game of power. As mother and son risk everything, forge alliances, face betrayals and resort to crime to satisfy their ambition, Rome emerges as a torchlit path through a swamp. Those who cross it are always one step away from destruction—and the road itself is treacherous, awash with blood.
NERO HAS FOUND A NAME. BUT HE MUST ALSO FIND A ROLE. AND ESCAPE AGRIPPINA’S SHADOW.
