El derecho de los lobos

El derecho de los lobos

De Bellis, Stefano
Fiorillo, Edgardo

In the year 80 a. C. Rome is a violent metropolis in which money, vice and politics intertwine. In the darkness of the underworld, four assassins led by a colossus with hideous scars break into the new luxury brothel La Vaina del Gladio and cause a massacre; among the dead, the wealthy cloth merchant Marco Vilio Cincio, aspiring senator. The owner of the place, the only survivor of the carnage and the main suspect, has disappeared, and there are many who are looking for him, such as the veteran centurion Tito Anio. In another corner of the city, the Vestal Cecilia Metela goes to the young Cicero to defend her protégé, Sexto Roscio, from the charge of parricide: a delicate cause that hides perverse interests. The shadow of Sulla, whose enemies are increasingly restless, looms over both cases. While, to get to the truth, Titus will have to face fights, ambushes and sentimental complications, Cicero will discover that in the forum is at stake not only the fate of Sexto, but his own, and even the survival of the Republic.
