Cartago fue vencida en dos guerras contra Roma que acabaron con su sueño de dominar el Mediterráneo.Pero, contra todo pronóstico, en lugar de deteriorarse se ha convertido en un gigante económico que amenaza ahora los intereses de Roma, aunque de otra forma.En el Senado romano se busca la excusa para una intervención militar que acabe para siempre con esa amenaza. Y el general Escipión Emiliano es quien tiene más posibilidades para encargarse de dicha tarea.Pero la determinación y astucia de los cartagineses no lo va a poner fácil. Y encargan a otro general de idéntico prestigio, Asdrúbal, la defensa de su ciudad y de su cultura.En ambos lados habrá intrigas, romances, traiciones, reflexiones y saldrán a la luz muchas sensaciones que habían quedado adormecidas. Desfilarán políticos, escritores, filósofos y militares a través de la narración para componer un cuadro de las circunstancias de una época que, a pesar de la distancia en el tiempo, no son muy distintas de las actuales. 10
