Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Imperial Purple
When the murder was done and the heralds shouted through the thick streets that Caesar had passed into oblivion, it was the passing of the republic they announced, the foundation of Imperial Rome.
There was a hush, then a riot which frightened a senate that frightened the world. Caesar was adored. A man who could give millions away and sup on dry bread was apt to conquer, not provinces alone, but hearts. Besides, he had begun well and his people had done their best.
