Synopsis "Pan y Circo (in Spanish)"

Año 23 a.C. Augusto está gravemente enfermo y sus dos herederos se disputan la sucesión. Para ganarse el favor de la plebe, Marco Claudio Marcelo dilapidará su fortuna en juegos circenses, obras de teatro y combates entre gladiadores, mientras una atroz sequía hace peligrar el suministro de trigo a Roma. A esta amenaza se suma la conspiración de un grupo de senadores, liderados por Fanio Cepión y Licinio Varrón Murena, que pretenden reinstaurar la República.Como agente al servicio de Tiberio, Marco Vitruvio Rufiano deberá infiltrarse en la escuela de gladiadores de Varrón Murena para averiguar sus planes y tratar de desbaratarlos. Una misión que le llevará desde los bajos fondos de la capital hasta la arena de los anfiteatros, en los que se decide el futuro de la República. Pronto descubrirá que su hermanastra Vitruvia, que regenta un negocio editorial, y Cintia, una actriz de mimo, desempeñan un importante papel en la despiadada lucha por el control de la opinión pública.
