Description: As a child, Claudia led a privileged life. She lives in luxury, tended by slaves and absolutely adored by her family. She's also been gifted with second sight, and her dreams reveal a great deal - from which gladiator will win the battle in the Collosseum, to the hidden enemies plotting against the Emperor. Claudia marries one of Rome's rising stars, the handsome young soldier Pilate, and she finds her life is one of parties, banquets, gossip and hope for the future. But Rome can be a cruel city and Claudia finds out soon enough that husbands aren't always faithful, and friends are not always true. And that sometimes even your dreams can betray you ...
