The Last Sacrifice

Helius, a trusted adviser to Nero, foresees the death of the renowned warrior Gallus Sergius Vitas and believes he knows the truth behind it. When Vitas appears in the arena badly beaten, he is rescued by a stranger and entrusted with a mysterious scroll that he must decipher to uncover vital secrets. Both Vitas and Helius race to decode the letter, despite Nero's increasing tyranny and expanding list of enemies.
