By the end of the summer of 44 A.D., a long confrontation with recalcitrant local tribes in Britain had exhausted not only the strength of the soldiers of Commander Plautus, but also the patience of the Emperor, who demanded a speedy victory. The task of Centurions Macro and Cato in the Second Legion is to hold the ford across the Tamesis River. But due to a command error, the heroes find themselves in the role of fugitives, pursued by their own comrades, and now they have only one weak chance to redeem themselves.In the spring of 45, centurions Macro and Cato, dismissed from the Second Legion in Britain, are awaiting an investigation into their involvement in the death of a fellow officer. And although they know the treachery of Secretary Narcissus, it is not in their position to choose: by fulfilling his request to save the most valuable scrolls from the hands of pirates, they will render a service to the Empire and save their reputation. But Narcissus finds himself in collusion with Vitellius, their old enemy, and now the centurions have to think again not only about the fate of Rome, but also about their own destinies.Included in the collection are Simon Scarrow's novels "The Extraction of the Golden Eagle" and "The Prophecy of the Eagle" continue the famous cycle "Eagles of the Empire", which is dedicated to the Roman legionnaires and books from which have become bestsellers in many countries of the world.
