FIC The Tribune
Larkin, Patrick
LP-2574
Lucius Aurelius Valens, a soldier in the

those who can take his position, and his
life. To avoid further trouble, he accepts
the command of the Third Gallic Cavalry
Regiment stationed in far-off Galilee.
There Lucius expects a life of long,
tedious patrols through the outlying
province. No sooner has he arrived, than
he stumbles on a massacre of soldiers and
the man they were protecting, a Roman
senator and ally of the emperor.
