Justinian re-emperors himself. He then indulges in protracted revenge. You love to see it. He captures Apsimar and fishes Leontius out of whatever monastery he's been confined to. Has them both publicly executed.

Stratos, Byzantium in the Seventh Century, a multi-volume narrative history (translated from the Greek: first vol. published 1968) is highly recommended, if you can get ahold of it.
Haldon, Byzantium in the Seventh Century, is a standard textbook-ish study you can easily get hold of. In the first thread I linked to translations of the two major narrative histories, if you want to go straight to the sources and skip the scholars (probably better).

(mistyped: I referenced, didn‘t link to, the translations. They are alas not online.)
