    About this ebook

    “The flame flickered, its writhing shadow cast upon a woman gasping for air. She was the hope of the empire–the flame the symbol of its strength and both were starving.” Their sanctity guarantees the growth of Imperial Rome.

Ancient Rome expects its volatile emperor to solve the mystery, but Caligula, teetering between insanity and reality, has other priorities. Seducing the Flame, a historical thriller based on real events and characters, is a story of political savagery and the desperate attempt to save a fabled empire as fragile as the flame flickering in the tomb of the latest virgin buried alive…
