From the pen of the international bestselling author of The Last
Legion comes a new political thriller set during the tempestuous
final days of Julius Caesar's Imperial Rome.It is March in the year
44 BC. The Roman Empire stretches from modern-day Syria in the east
to the Atlantic Ocean in the west. Gaius Julius Caesar, Pontifex
Maximus, dictator in perpetuity, indomitable military leader who
has subjected much of the known world to Roman law, is fifty-six
years old. He is at the height of his power, his reign is supreme
and his reach immense. Or so it appears. In truth, Caesar is
exhausted and ill, trapped in the prison of his own nightmares. His
divine missions-to end the bloody season of fratricidal wars, to
reconcile warring factions, to singlehandedly save Roman
civilization-may be too great for one man.The tide is turning
against Caesar and there are those who conspire against him. They
accuse him of being a tyrant. They say that when he dissolved the
alliance with Pompey the Great at the river Rubicon, he put an end
to liberty within the Republic. Caesar has resisted the attempts of
his betrayers to bring him down, still he cannot resist forever.
His power is being drained and it seems that nothing can save him,
not Publius Sextius-his most loyal centurion and comrade, who is
racing toward Rome in an attempt to prevent his assassination-or
his devoted wife, Calphurnia, not even the attentions of his lover
Servilla.The soothsayer's prophecies will out and when the Ides of
March have passed, the world will have changed forever.
Úprimná spoveď matky – manželky, ktorú zlé rozhodnutia vženú priamo
do náruče odborníkov. Ako žena, matka a manželka si je vedomá
svojich chýb, ťarcha rozhodnutí je však oveľa silnejšia. Stráca
nielen svoju rodinu, ale aj to, čo jej bolo najbližšie. Svoje deti.
Skutočný príbeh, tak trochu drsný, trochu podaný s vtipom o ženách,
mužoch a deťoch, ktorým jediné rozhodnutie zmenilo život. V poradí
štrnásta kniha od obľúbenej Evity Urbaníkovej prináša príbeh, ktorý
je zasadený do prostredia rodiny a medziľudských vzťahov. Citát:
Niekedy máme v živote jednoducho smolu. Niekedy sa dostaneme do
prúseru, ani nevieme ako. Ale niekedy si za všetko, čo sa deje,
môžeme sami.
