关于此电子书
A young soldier with a secret past. An ancient family rivalry. A conspiracy that threatens to plunge Roman Britain into darkness.
Living in a hovel, beaten by a merciless commander, broken by the weather and forced to survive on starvation rations: no one looking at Paul would ever gues that he is heir to one of Roman Britain's wealthiest and most important families. But Paul had his reasons for joining the army and fleeing the family he loves.
But when rumours of a barbarian uprising from beyond the Wall begin to circulate, Paul realises that his family is in grave danger.
With only former slave-girl Eachna for company, Paul deserts the army - for which the penalty is death - and undertakes a hazardous journey across Britain where danger lurks around every corner.
Epic in scope, rich with historical detail, THE LION AND THE LAMB is a novel of Roman Britain on the cusp of the Dark Ages, when all that stood between her citizens and oblivion was one family.
