Rufus Varro, former spy, is summoned back to Rome from his country villa by Marcus Agrippa.

Accompanied by his bodyguard, Manius, Varro journeys to the capital. The road proves perilous however, when Varro is targeted by assassins.

Once they reach Rome, Agrippa orders Varro to investigate the gruesome murder of a young aristocrat, Marcus Corvinus - a close friend of Tiberius and Julia, Caesar's stepson and daughter.

Could Varro's new assignment and the plot to assassinate him be linked?

The agent must tread carefully in his investigation, as well as watch his back for any further attempts on his life.

Varro eventually uncovers the truth. It is a secret which, if he doesn't bury, could send him to his grave.

At the same time the figure behind the assassination attempt is unmasked - and the hunted becomes the hunter.

Spies of Rome: Blood & Secrets is the third and final book in the acclaimed, bestselling series.

Recommended reading for fans of Steven Saylor, Robert Harris and Ben Kane.

Praise for the Spies of Rome series:

"A masterful and evocative depiction of a fledgling imperial Rome fraught with intrigue and at war with itself. The story and characters are as striking as the graffiti that adorns the violent city's walls during Augustus' rise." Steven Veerapen, author of The Abbey Close.

"Original and hard-hitting... Rome burns with intrigue in this totally unputdownable book." Antony Cutler, author of 'The Accursed'.

Praise for Richard Foreman's Books:

Augustus: Son of Rome

'Augustus: Son of Rome forges action and adventure with politics and philosophy. This superb story is drenched in both blood and wisdom - and puts Foreman on the map as the coming man of historical fiction'. Saul David, Author of the Zulu Hart series.

Raffles: The Complete Innings.

'Classy, humorous and surprisingly touching tales of cricket, friendship and crime.' David Blackburn, The Spectator.

Band of Brothers: The Complete Campaigns.

'Escapism at its best... A great read that tells much about the style of war and how the individuals fought.' Michael Jecks

'A rattling good yarn, requiring only the minimum of suspension of belief, and leaves one eagerly anticipating the next instalment of the adventures of the team as they accompany the King to Harfleur.' Major Gordon Corrigan, author of 'A Great and Glorious Adventure: A Military History of the Hundred Years War.'
