A Villa Far From Rome

Exiled by Emperor Nero, a homesick 16-year-old Roman girl and her illegitimate child find themselves in Britannia. There, a Celtic king navigates the treacherous path between tradition and Roman rule, while the ghost of Queen Boudicca looms. An old Legionary and a former Greek slave with a hidden past become entangled in the volatile landscape, all while an ambitious Roman architect attempts to replicate a grand Roman palace in this distant outpost. What could possibly go wrong in a land simmering with rebellion and conflicting loyalties?
