Sometimes murder is only a distraction from the true betrayal. Pliny, a respectable young senator and attorney at law, is the recently appointed governor of Bithynia, a turbulent frontier province rotting with corruption and seething with hatred of Rome. When a high Roman standard is available murdered on a desolate hillside kilometers from the administrative centre, Pliny must untangle numerous threads in the analysis, including a barbarian god whose devotees can include a murderer, a ingenious and unscrupulous beliefs healer who knows everyone's secrets, and a boy who battles toward manhood though stricken with the "sacred disease". But as Pliny pursues one baffling lead after another, he is being betrayed where he least expects it. His beautiful better half, neglected and lonely within an alien city, comes desperately deeply in love with a handsome young provincial, and the affair threatens to bring not only pain but mess up to Pliny's profession.
