Blood on Albintimilium

Albintimilium, a Roman city in Cisalpine Gaul, in the year 264 AD.
The lifeless body of a prostitute is found tied to a pole on the beach. The milites immediately sense they are dealing with a ruthless killer. The murders have just begun.
Milites Marco Decimo Apronio is young, determined, and more intelligent than the older colleagues he works with in the local Urbaniciani barracks. He is called upon to solve the case; his colleagues need a young and brilliant mind that has already helped them in the past solve difficult cases. However, this time, the mystery seems impossible even for Apronio: no one has ever seen anything like it before. With the support of the Pretorians, the manhunt begins.
Marco Decimo, shaken by a dark past and failed relationships, must confront his own anxieties as the search for the murderer plunges him into the darkest corners of consciousness. He delves into the mind of the killer, trying to understand the twisted actions, but discovers evil and hopes not to get entangled in it as everything seems to collapse around him.
With the discovery of more murdered women, a race against time begins. The only solution is to uncover the murderer before he kills again.
