The book delves into the intricate lives of patricians in ancient Rome, particularly focusing on the family of the old senator Mesembrius and his daughters. Themes of love, loyalty, and societal chaos are woven throughout the narrative as characters navigate the tensions between personal desires and the turbulent political landscape of their time. The opening of the story introduces the opulent yet troubled world of Roman aristocrats who, due to various pressures, are often forced to retreat from the city to their villas. Mesembrius, an aging senator, lives in isolation, bitter about the fate of his elder daughter Glyceria, whose marriage ended tragically. His younger daughter Sofronia poses a stark contrast; she is a beautiful woman, drawn to a secret faith and involved in emerging conflicts surrounding Christianity. As her beauty attracts suitors, tensions arise between familial love and the dangers of the social and religious upheaval. The scene is set for a gripping tale of romance, betrayal, and the quest for salvation amidst the imposing shadow of imperial Rome. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
