Excerpt from The Sign of the Eagle
Because of her harrowing experience as a child of seven in Rome's Tullianum Prison, Macha was no stranger to the stockade. She shuddered as the memories flooded her mind. After waging guerrilla warfare against Rome, her father's treacherous cousin, Cartimandua, Queen of the Brigantes, had betrayed Caratacus to the Romans. He had been captured, along with her mother and herself. The family languished in the filthy dungeon, surviving on watered-down gruel and moldy bread for two weeks before being paraded through the streets of Rome in lice infested rags to appear before Emperor Claudius. Even now she could feel the awful pests crawling on her body and the pangs of starvation within the walls of her stomach.
