In this prequel to Romulus and Remus we follow the tragic tale of their mother, Rhea Silvia. She risks her life for love, then does all she can to save her children. We also learn more of the other woman in the twins’ lives, Acca Larentia, who yearns to build a family of her own. Both will suffer tragedy, but the sacrifices they make will change the world. Who was the real father of Romulus and Remus? Why does Rhea guard his identity, even when she faces a fate worse than death?
