Their sanctity guarantees the growth of Rome. But someone is seducing the Vestal Virgins, the keepers of the eternal flame and the fate of the empire is at stake. Ancient Rome expects the Emperor, perhaps the most volatile of all time, to solve the mystery, but Caligula has other priorities.
Seducing the Flame is the story of political savagery and the desperate attempt to save a fabled empire as fragile as the flame flickering in the tomb of the latest virgin buried alive.
