Elio Sparziano, ufficiale e storico, viene inviato da Diocleziano in Egitto per vigilare sul rispetto degli editti imperiali e per raccogliere informazioni utili a scrivere una biografia dell'imperatore Adriano, morto da quasi duecento anni. La sua indagine assume però contorni inediti, ed estremamente attuali, quando viene a sapere che le prove di una cospirazione ai danni di Roma si celerebbero nel leggendario sepolcro di Antinoo, il favorito di Adriano annegato nel Nilo giovanissimo in circostanze mai chiarite (incidente? Omicidio? Rito sacrificale?).

I confini orientali dell'Impero sono minacciati da un personaggio misterioso quanto terribile: Ter Vishap, il Signore dei Draghi che domina con il terrore quelle remote regioni e a cui la credulità popolare attribuisce poteri sovrannaturali. Elio Sparziano è inviato a fare chiarezza, ma la sua missione, ancora prima di iniziare, si tinge di sangue: Sanazar, il mercante persiano che avrebbe dovuto fare da intermediario, muore in un incidente forse troppo provvidenziale.

Si chiama Agnus, ma per i cristiani è la "Voce del fuoco". Vagabonda nelle province dell'Impero romano e compie prodigi sovrannaturali: risana ciechi, resuscita morti. Eppure, quando Marco Lupo, gestore di un mattonificio a Confluentes, muore per la seconda volta pochi giorni dopo la sua "resurrezione", l'inviato imperiale Elio Sparziano comincia a sospettare che dietro quei miracoli possa nascondersi qualcosa di assai più terreno.

Though most Christians refrain from predicting exactly when our world will end, many believe that when Earth's finale does arrive, it will be a catastrophe. Details vary, but the general assumption is the same: Things will get much, much worse before they get better. But is this really what the Bible teaches? Leaving aside the theological terms that often confuse and muddle this question, Douglas Wilson instead explains eschatology as the end of the greatest story in the world.

Berlino, 9 luglio del 1944. Il tenente colonnello Martin Bora, ex agente dell'Abwehr, il servizio segreto della Wehrmacht, è in arrivo dal fronte italiano. Ha ottenuto una licenza - con sua sorpresa considerato lo sforzo bellico - per partecipare ai funerali dello zio, un illustre clinico in rotta con il regime nazista. Voci indiscrete sul suicidio dello zio, strenuo oppositore del progetto medico nazista "vite inutili", lo insospettiscono. E intorno, incontri che sembrano provocazioni gli fanno percepire qualcosa di strano nell'atmosfera.

Martin Bora, l'investigatore di casi delicati per i servizi segreti della Wehrmacht, si trova a Mosca. Mancano settimane all'attacco di Hitler alla Russia di Stalin, e l'ufficiale è aggregato al corpo diplomatico della capitale sovietica immersa ancora nel clima del patto Ribbentrop-Molotov. In questa veste, gli arriva una strana richiesta da parte del diabolico Beria: recarsi a Creta, appena presa dai tedeschi, per procurare al raccapricciante capo dello spionaggio sovietico sessanta bottiglie di un pregiatissimo vino cretese.
