Synopsis

A dangerous emperor brings darkness close to home…

Rome, 83 AD. At last, Althea and Marcus are married, dreaming of a peaceful life in the country, far from the blood and chaos of the gladiatorial Games. But Emperor Domitian has other plans. His erratic demands grow darker with each passing day, and the couple – alongside their loyal backstage team – must navigate three final tasks that test courage, loyalty, and survival itself.

As lives are lost and danger closes in, Althea and Marcus must decide how far they are willing to go to obey the whims of a dangerous emperor while protecting those they love. In the face of fear, uncertainty, and treachery, their loving bond – and the family they have chosen – may be the only light in a world built on shadows.

The Flight of Birds is the gripping conclusion to the Colosseum series: a story of bravery, love, and the unbreakable ties of family forged through fire, water, earth, and air. Join Althea, Marcus, and their friends as they risk everything to secure the happy life they’ve fought for. Perfect for readers who enjoy immersive Roman historical fiction such as The Wolf Den by Elodie Harper, Mistress of Rome by Kate Quinn, and Pompeii by Robert Harris.
