By the end of the summer of 44 AD, the long confrontation with unruly local tribes in Britain had exhausted not only the strength of the soldiers of commander Plautus, but also the patience of the Emperor, demanding a speedy victory. The task of centurions Macron and Cato in the Second Legion is to hold the ford across the river Tamesis. But due to a mistake of command, the heroes find themselves as fugitives, pursued by their own comrades, and now they have only one weak chance to redeem themselves. In the spring of 45 Centurions Macron and Cato, dismissed from the Second Legion in Britain, await an investigation into their involvement in the death of a fellow officer. Though they know the perfidy of Narcissus' secretary, it is not their position to choose: by honoring his request to rescue the valuable scrolls from the hands of pirates, they will be doing the Empire a favor and saving their reputations. But Narcissus finds himself in league with Vitellius, their old enemy, and now the Centurions once again have to think not only about the fate of Rome, but also about their own destinies. Included in the collection of novels by Simon Scarrow "The Golden Eagle's Prey" and "The Eagle's Prophecy" continue the famous cycle "Eagles of the Empire", which is dedicated to the Roman legionaries and books from which have become bestsellers in many countries around the world.
