When Emperor Nero finds out about one of Atti's clever plans, he makes him join the army. He is sent to "miserable, cold, wet Britain," where "the locals are revolting, to put it bluntly." When Orla, a sassy teenage Celt who wants to prove herself as a warrior, captures Atti, things get worse. After almost drowning in a bog, Atti uses what he knows about the Romans to help Orla save her grandmother, who has been taken by a rival tribe. Nero, on the other hand, is very angry and wants to put an end to the rebellion led by Boudicca, Queen of the Iceni. Atti goes back to his Roman troops and finds that they are getting ready for an important battle with the Celts at Watling Street. Atti's smarts could save the day, but they could also be bad news for Orla if the two new friends end up on opposite sides of the battlefield.
