Her sister, Marcella, is more withdrawn, content to witness history rather than make it. She lives to one day see her loyal husband as Emperor. The Year of Four Emperors will change everything-especially the lives of two sisters with a very personal stake in the outcome….Įlegant and ambitious, Cornelia embodies the essence of the perfect Roman wife.
