The Londinium File Gavin Chappell

Recalled to Rome by his Chief, imperial agent Gaius Flaminius Drusus meets with a mystery. The Commissary has changed. Probus has vanished. And Flaminius is denounced as an impostor by the man who has replaced him. What has happened to the Commissary? What has happened to Probus? Why was Flaminius recalled? A series of documents provide clues about the whereabouts of the lost treasure of the Dacian kings, and the identity of the thief, but what does this have to do with Flaminius' own fugitive status? His search for answers will take him from secret vaults beneath the imperial palace to the slave tunnels of Hadrian's villa, from the scented gardens of Italy to the rolling moorlands of the Caledonian wilds. Flaminius will need all his wits about him as he seeks to uncover a conspiracy against the emperor that now threatens his own life. Part Eight in ON HADRIAN'S SECRET SERVICE
