Octavius Cadmus Cato is a Camp Prefect of the 9th Legion Hispania. Under the command of his father, Atticus Costa, the 9th legion is successfully leading the push for Rome’s conquest of the island of Britannia. While encamped for the winter, Costa assigns Cato to escort Boudicca, a princess of the Iceni tribe, a tribe loyal to Rome, north to negotiate a peace treaty between the Brigantes and the Empire. Plagued by dreams of angels and gods, Cato's journey takes him through a land of myth and magic as he is forced to confront his long-forgotten past.

This is a tale of dreams and nightmares, of secrets and deceit, of love and loss. Cato must find his way through betrayal and save those he loves.

Hunted in the Mist

“What does he know?” Galedir demanded. He turned to Cato. “What do you know?”


“I don’t know for certain,” Cato explained. “But I believe they are referring to Costa’s plan to ensure all of his men survive the ritual.”


They all eyed Cato suspiciously. Of course, he was a Roman, but he was here to fight by their side. He needed to convince them he wasn’t simply trying to save his own skin.


“He has to sacrifice a pure line descendent of the first true Werewolf,” Cato announced.


“Last purebred I heard of was Carvorst,” Galedir mocked. “And none of the bastards he sired are worth a damn.”


“I believe that” Cato nodded. “My name is Octavius Cadmus Cato, the last son of Carvorst, chosen by Skoll the Devourer of the Moon. And I’m telling you Costa needs my blood.”


“Well then, we have you now so why don’t we just kill you here and he can’t have an army of werewolf legionaries?” Eithne’s suggestion came as quite a surprise. Cato eyed her seriously. “It would save a lot of bloodshed.”
