The latest gripping instalment in the bestselling Nero trilogy follows Empress Agrippina's ceaseless pursuit of absolute power for her son to rule over the Roman Empire.

Ancient Rome, AD 50

The boy Nero lives. His mother, Agrippina, has married her way to power, tangling the Emperor Claudius in her skirts. The emperor may have a son and heir of his own, but Agrippina sees no obstacles to her ambition.

Rome is a path through a marsh, lit by torches. Those who walk it are always one step from disasterβ€”and the road itself is treacherous, slippery with blood. Claudius may have the world at his feet, but he has Agrippina in his bed.

Tyrant immerses you in a world of ancient intrigue and ambition, where the line between power and peril is razor-thin.
