A battle determined the fate of an Empire, a battle determined the fate of one man 16 A.D. the imposing Roman army of Germanicus is ready for the decisive battle against the warriors of Arminius. The aim is to put an end to the revolt of the Germanic peoples ones and for all and get even for the destruction of Varus' the three legions, which took place years earlier in Cheruscan territory. For the Optio Lucio Gaio Salassio, a legionary due to Germanicus and one of the few survivors of the massacre, waiting to give a decent burial to the soldiers and friends left unburied in the forest is not his only objective of his military campaign. For him, returning after years to the site of the massacre is the only chance he has left to change his fate. The fortress of Castra Vetera on the Rhine becomes, in his life, the meeting point of two opposing worlds: the now vanished world of his friends and the world of hope for a new beginning alongside Irilda. A historical novel in which real life events merge with the destiny of one man ready to sacrifice himself, his world, his future, in the name of the woman he loves.
