As he did with Imperium, Robert Harris again turns Roman history into a gripping thriller as Cicero faces a new power struggle in a world filled with treachery, violence, and vengeance.On the eve of Ciceros inauguration as consul of Rome, a grisly discovery sends fear rippling through a city already racked by unrest. A young slave boy has been felled by a hammer, his throat slit and his organs removed, apparently as a human sacrifice. For Cicero, the ill omens of this hideous murder only increase his dangerous situation: elected leader by the people but despised by the heads of the two rival political camps. Caught in a shell game that leaves him forever putting out fires only to have them ignite elsewhere, Cicero plays for the future of the republicand his life. There is a plot to assassinate him, abetted by a rising young star of the Roman senate named Gaius Julius Caesar-and it will take all the embattled consuls wit, strength, and force of will to stop the plot and keep Rome from becoming a dictatorship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49660964274416,"sku":"NEW0743266110","price":14.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0830\/4623\/6400\/files\/81cXAqi1ZRL.jpg?v=1777863478","url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/conspirata-a-novel-of-ancient-rome-by-harris-robert","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
