A Viper in the Fire

History gives birth to twin nightmares.

Two lost souls, a war veteran and a war refuge tormented by their past, find each other in the depths of suffering and despair. Over the course of actual recorded history they aid each other's search for vengeance and ultimately redemption.

This novel is the first of two books that follows ancient Roman history. Beginning at the final battle of the Roman Civil War and ending with the assassination of the first real global dictator. Only the deaths of the key figures from the past have been re-imagined in gruesome detail.

The timeline is actuate and undisputed. The manner in which the deaths occur are fact, but at whose hands will always remain a mystery even for the most learned historians.
