Synopsis "Caesar's Mercy"

Twenty-three wounds. One of them was fatal. A centurion turned it. Rome, the Ides of March, 44 BCE. The knives go in, and Julius Caesar walks out of the Curia of Pompey on Mark Antony's arm. The men who did it are waiting on the Capitol for the city to rise, and the city does not. So Caesar does the one thing nobody, least of all the men with the knives, has planned for. He forgives them. Titus Ammius, the centurion who turned the blade, is left with a ruined hand and the door of the most dangerous house in the world to keep. Marcus Brutus, pardoned in front of the whole Senate, must live inside a mercy he cannot repay and cannot refuse. Across the river, Cleopatra has a son Rome will not recognise, and learns the price of every day Caesar stays alive. And at Apollonia a boy of eighteen, Gaius Octavius, reads a letter that says He asked for you, and begins keeping a second column of the things he does not write down. The army goes east, to Parthia and the lost eagles of Crassus. The knives stay in Rome. And in the House of the Vestals there is a will, and everyone in the city would like to know whose name is in it. When he kills a man, the man is dead, and that's the end. When he pardons a man, the man belongs to him for the rest of his life. Book two of Legends Reimagined, the series that began with Alexander's Legacy by L.M. Morningstar.
