Every legend has a beginning . . .
Rome, 77 B.C. The corrupt Senator Dolabella is about to go on trial for his crimes.
But Dolabella owns the jury. He´s hired the best lawyers in the city. And he´s very willing to use violence against those who oppose him.
In all of Rome, no man dares accept the role of prosecutor-until, against all odds, an unknown twenty-three-year-old steps out to lead the case, defend the people of the city, and defy the power of the ruling elite.
That lawyer´s name is Gaius Julius Caesar.
So begins Santiago Posteguillo´s acclaimed masterpiece of historical fiction―a tale as epic as Caesar´s life itself. An irresistible page-turning novel of politics and betrayal, grand battles and impossible odds, shocking villainy and even greater acts of courage, I Am Rome brilliantly animates the moments that shaped this extraordinary young man´s fate-and in so doing, changed the course of history itself.
