Summary

The author reconstructs the dramatic conflicts preceding and following the Great Fire of Rome in A.D. 64 through the experience of a family of Roman nobility caught up in the political and religious clashes of the world's capital. The family of Flavius Sabinus, mayor of Rome under Nero, was among the first crucial converts to Christianity, and this novel recounts the "the rest of the story" following the book of Acts
