The Rise and Fall of a Gladiatrix

Within the ancient Roman city of Ostia, a bastard trader auctions Nehset, a dangerously spirited prisoner from the heathen Kingdom of Kush. There is no question she is a rare find. Despite being implicated for murder and slated for execution, the woman is quickly purchased by Marcus Vatis, a man with a vendetta and a desire to train her to become a gladiator. Nehset, who is less than thrilled to be enslaved once again, soon learns that she and Vatis have the same enemy: the man who saw to the tragedy that brought her to the port city.

As her fate unfolds, Nehset will have to wield the sword in a fight that will either give her the freedom she has always desired or rob her of it forever. The Rise and Fall of a Gladiatrix is an empowering story of hidden strength and perseverance as a slave battles for liberty in ancient Rome.
