A series of documents provide clues about the whereabouts of the lost treasure of the Dacian kings, and the identity of the thief, but what does this have to do with Flaminius' own fugitive status? His search for answers will take him from secret vaults beneath the imperial palace to the slave tunnels of Hadrian's villa, from the scented gardens of Italy to the rolling moorlands of the Caledonian wilds.
