Blood on the red carpet, a dancing goddess and the fight against merciless secret organisations
Anna Savarese has revealed her mother’s murderer but in doing so she has also stirred up a hornet’s nest. The CIA tracks her down to Spain, and she is forced to return to Rome. In Rome, their ally Spartaco is searching for Halinka, the painter, who may have fallen victim to the imperator. Halinka’s tracks lead Anna and Spartaco to the most forlorn quarter of the city, where the gruesome cult of the Barb elite has been brought back to life.
In the meantime, Gennaro Palladino has hooked up with Contessa Amarante, who is fighting tooth and nail for her power over the reincarnated emperor. She is prepared to use any means possible, even a new fire of Rome.
