The year is one hundred and twenty-two after Christ. On the edge of the world, Rome holds Britannia in its grasp. Yet in the north, beyond the frontier, a legion has vanished. Whispers speak of druids, of stones that hum in the night, of a Gate that should never be opened. Soon, an emperor will raise a wall across the land. But before the wall, there was only fear… and those who lived in its shadow.
