Set in A.D. 9 and based on an actual incident, Centurion moves from the battlefields of Germany to intrigue and danger on the streets of Rome. As he nears retirement, Senior Centurion Glaxus Valtinius encounters incompetence, ambition, and betrayal at his last duty station near the Rhine River. After these factors lead to a catastrophic defeat at the hands of the Germanic Gauls, Glaxus must return to Rome to see that justice is done. While there, he is reunited with Calvinia, the woman he loves. Their happiness, as well as the fate of the empire, hinges on a climactic showdown before the Emperor himself.
