In Book Three, Yosef -- defeated and captured at Yotapta -- remains Roman General Vespasian's prisoner as a growing number of his countrymen consider him a traitor. Nicanor, in Rome, travels to the empire's western provinces to Marcus Otho, governor of Hispania Lusitania, seeking his help to save Cleo, his sister. Nero, facing execution, commits suicide and Lord Galba, who is close to Marcus Otho, becomes the new emperor. Cleo, unable to flee to Rome with Nicanor, hides in Jerusalem with Yosef's family. Sayid returns to the Roman army and finds his father. Miriam rekindles feelings for Ehud, a former love who has returned to Jerusalem, but the Sicarii believe him a Roman collaborator. In Jerusalem, the effort to save the Temple treasure begins as factions within bring the city to the point of anarchy. In Rome, discord and forces within threaten to fracture the empire. The stage is set for what leads to Rome's Year of the Four Emperors and Jerusalem's eventual destruction.
