Season of the Gladiatrix

Thrilling historical fiction set in Ancient Rome

AD 87.

Hylas, a member of the Praetorian Guard, is on duty at the palace of the cruel and paranoid Emperor Domitian.

Although loyal to his emperor, Hylas has reason to despise him, in the form of the beautiful gladiatrix, Corelia.

Hylas fell in love with Corelia the first time he saw her, but had to endure the knowledge that her regular visits to the palace were in order to spend her time in the bed of Domitian, submitting to his every whim.

Hylas is given a mission upon which the result of an important trial will hang â€“ a trial of senators, charged with the most heinous of crimes: conspiracy to murder and overthrow the emperor.

He has to find the missing witness whose evidence would convict the conspirators.

For Hylas, however, the difficult task is about to be made more complicated by a further, and perhaps more dangerous operation, imposed upon him by Corelia.

Hylas leaves Rome on his now two-fold assignment, assisted by another young gladiatrix, Aria.

They journey through the Empire towards Asia, but Hylas is not the only one searching for the witness, and those who pursue him do not necessarily have the same goal as he doesâ€¦

Season of the Gladiatrix is a thrilling historical novel set in Ancient Rome. It follows on from The Eagleâ€™s Nest and The Wolfâ€™s Lair.
