Produktbeschreibung

She was in on the game but a reluctant player

The game started right after Nero's suicide in AD 68, and his death was part of the game. He'd been tricked by the other players into taking his own life, opening the race, the free-for-all to seize power in Rome. What ensued went down in History as the 'Year of the Four Emperors'.

But from the start the rivals vying for the top prize discovered that Nero had a half-sister, eighteen-year-old Antonia, the daughter of Claudius and Agrippina, and using her as a pawn became part of the game. Only, she didn't want to be usedor eliminatedand managed to thwart them so well that in the end they called her 'the ghost player'.

Then Antonia went back to being Desiderata, married and mother of three, a Christian, and a 'Seeker of Justice' by trade. Until one day, in AD 86, her old enemy Numa Manlius tried to revive the game, and Desi had to take up one more challenge.

Autorenporträt

Nick Aaron is Dutch, but he was born in South Africa (1956), where he attended a British-style boarding school, in Pietersburg, Transvaal. Later he lived in Lausanne (Switzerland), in Rotterdam, Luxembourg and Belgium. He worked for the European Parliament as a printer and proofreader. Currently he's retired and lives in Malines.

Recently, after writing in Dutch and French for many years, the author went back to the language of his mid-century South African childhood. A potential global readership was the incentive; the trigger was the character of Daisy Hayes, who asserted herself in his mind wholly formed.
