A chilling novel that explores a genocide of the ancient world. In 146 B.C., after three years of siege, the Roman army took Carthage by storm in a frenzy of total destruction. The people of the city were massacred or enslaved and every single building was razed to the ground. The novel tells of seven very different lives-lives that become inescapably caught up in the destruction, treachery and cruelty that reigned.
