Exile - Living death to a Roman

AD 395. In a Christian Roman Empire, worshipping the traditional gods is a death sentence. Three Romans, Maelia, Lucius and Galla, faithful to their beliefs in Rome's thousand-year religion and values, must choose. Do they stay, hoping for the best, or leave Rome forever - a rupture from everything they know - to search for a safer life?

Maelia Mitela, her dead husband condemned as a pagan traitor, leaving her on the brink of ruin, grieves for her son lost to the Christians and is fearful of committing to another man.

Lucius Apulius, ex-tribune, faithful to the old gods and fixed on his memories of his wife Julia's homeland of Noricum, will risk everything to protect his children's future.

Galla Apulia, loyal to her father and only too aware of not being the desired son, is desperate to escape Rome after the humiliation of betrayal by her feckless husband.

For all of them, the only way to survive is exile.

Sequel to JULIA PRIMA (Historical Novel Society Editors' Choice). Set at the dusk of the Roman Empire, the origin story behind the modern Roma Nova thriller series.

Industry Reviews

Praise for NEXUS
"Fans of Morton’s Roma Nova series will adore this battle of might and personality. NEXUS is House of Cards meets Game of Thrones, A taut European novella to make you catch your breath." – JJ Marsh, author of The Beatrice Stubbs Series

Praise for the Aurelia Mitela Roma Nova thrillers:
AURELIA
"AURELIA exploresâ¨ a 1960s that is at once familiar and utterly different –â¨a brilliant page turner that will keep you gripped from first page to last. Highly recommended.”â¨– Russell Whitfield, author of the Gladiatrix series

INSURRECTIO
“INSURRECTIO – a taut, fast-paced thriller and I enjoyed it enormously. Rome, guns and rebellion. Darkly gripping stuff.” – Conn Iggulden, author of the Emperor series

RETALIO
“As always Alison Morton’s alternative world where a fragment of the Roman Empire has survived to the present day feels utterly authentic”– Douglas Jackson, author of the Valerius Verrens series
