In the last years of Roman rule, the Count of the Saxon Shore guards Britain’s coasts against pirates while a usurper strips the province of its army. At a villa on Vectis, the Isle of Wight, a Romano-British family faces raiders, ambitious pretenders and a Saxon in their midst, as the world they know comes apart.
A thoughtful historical adventure by a classical scholar, fine for older children and adults interested in the end of Roman Britain. Download the free EPUB.
