The penalty for losing a prisoner is death. There is only one thing to do – run for their lives!Only one man is experienced enough to know how to cope with the vagaries of the barren, arid and inhospitable countryside, as well as the dangers posed by resistance fighters, Roman military police and untrustworthy locals.
