The Temple Murder

About the Book

The murder of a moneylender is for many people the answer to a pray. For others it is a means to an end! With the stroke of a dagger all debts are paid, or are they?

For Centurion Carinus the death of one man sets in motion a chain of events, that will see him embroiled in a power struggle with men who will not hesitate to kill anyone in their quest for power.

Can one man stop them?

About the Author

Gordon Walton lives in the town of Consett, about fourteen miles from the Cathedral city of Durham.

Since his school days he has been fascinated by ancient military history, and in particular the Roman empire. From 1982 to 1985 he attended night school at Durham University, and was taught by the eminent Roman historian Dr. Brian Dobson. The knowledge that people like Dr. Dobson have passed on to Gordon, fuelled his passion for Roman Britain. This passion has now taken solid form in his Centurion Carinus novels, set in Northern Britain in the mid fourth century A.D.
