A debt of 120,000 sesterces. Four desperate sureties. One word that binds them all.

Rome, 205 CE. In the bustling heart of the Severan Dynasty, the law is more than just rules-it is a weapon, a shield, and a lethal trap. When a wealthy silk merchant dies insolvent, leaving behind a massive debt, the relentless banker Calvus comes to collect. But the money is gone, and the eyes of the law turn to the four men who guaranteed the loan.
Enter Trebonius, a sharp-witted advocate guided by his veteran mentor, Pulvillus. To save his clients, Trebonius must navigate the treacherous waters of the Stipulatio-the solemn oral contract where a single misplaced word can mean financial ruin.

In Stipulatio et Cautio: The Binding Word, you will:

  • Experience the Courtroom of Ancient Rome: Step inside the world of the formula procedure, where legal strategy is a high-stakes game of chess.
  • Master the Law of Obligations: Learn the intricate mechanics of Fideiussio (suretyship), Novatio (renewal of debt), and the powerful Exceptio Doli through a gripping, character-driven narrative.
  • Go Beyond the Textbook: Study authentic primary sources from the Digest of Justinian and the Institutes of Gaius, woven seamlessly into the plot.
Whether you are a law student looking to ace your exams, a history buff craving Roman authenticity, or a fan of legal thrillers like The Lincoln Lawyer set in the ancient world, this book is your portal to the foundations of Western justice.

Will the letter of the law prevail, or can the spirit of equity find a way? Discover the power of the spoken word in the eighth installment of the acclaimed Roman Law Series.
