The Serpent and the Slave is Scott Hunter’s foray into historical fiction, set in the Roman-era British Isles. The novel explores the tensions between occupying Roman forces and native Celtic peoples, a setting far removed from Hunter’s contemporary crime fiction.
Published in 2011, the same year as his debut crime novel Black December, the book demonstrates Hunter’s range across genres. The ancient British setting allows him to combine adventure storytelling with historical detail.
