National bestselling author Kate Quinn returns with the long-awaited
fourth volume in the Empress of Rome series, an unforgettable new tale
of the politics, power, and passion that defined ancient Rome.
Elegant, secretive Sabina may be Empress of Rome, but she still
stands poised on a knife’s edge. She must keep the peace between two
deadly enemies: her husband Hadrian, Rome’s brilliant and sinister
Emperor; and battered warrior Vix, who is her first love. But Sabina is
guardian of a deadly secret: Vix’s beautiful son Antinous has become the
Emperor’s latest obsession.
Empress and Emperor, father and son will spin in a deadly dance of
passion, betrayal, conspiracy, and war. As tragedy sends Hadrian
spiraling into madness, Vix and Sabina form a last desperate pact to
save the Empire. But ultimately, the fate of Rome lies with an untried
girl, a spirited redhead who may just be the next Lady of the Eternal
City…

Praise for Lady of the Eternal City
“Quinn specializes in bringing the splendor of Britannia and Rome to
readers. The tangled lives of her three-dimensional characters represent
the entanglements of the Empire. She cleverly pulls readers into the
complex relationships, and even more complicated history, while bouncing
back and forth between viewpoints. This is a feast for historical
readers.” – Romantic Times Book Reviews
