Britain, 391 AD.
The geographical, political and social outlines of the annexed nation are being constantly redefined, as the battling powers in Rome attempt to seize control of the Empire.
Flavius Vitulasius and his trusted associate, Siward, are journeying to receive a highly confidential mission, across the narrow sea, from the Master of Offices in Gaul. A document, the 'Pagan Concord', threatens to pull apart Britain at the seams, creating the lurking fear of civil war between the Christians and Pagans, as ritualistic sacrifices and mysterious disappearances soon become the norm.
If Flavius and Siward can recover the 'Pagan Concord', they will be able to unmask the conspirators behind the unrest. With the help of an ardent Christian, Lucius Aurelius, the trio commence their enquiries in a clearly divided Britain. It is not long before they have some unwelcome attention, as murderous villains stalk their every move...
Divided Empire is a compelling piece of historical fiction. The first in a series, there is an unexpected twist around every action-packed corner.
