Riassunto

Set in Ancient Rome. When Marcus Corvinus is summoned by the Empress Livia he fears the worst: age has not sweetened her. But Livia has a favour to ask, Marcus must investigate the death of her grandson, Germanicus. This favour is to embroil Marcus in a multi-stranded web of betrayal and deceit.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

there's lots of action and a nice plot, full of suspense, to keep you going (Sunday Telegraph)

Like Chandler's Marlow, Corvinus wisecracks his way through a weary world of murder and intrigue until he hunts down the truth. A taut thriller in which ancient Rome springs to life (The Times)

Praise for David Wishart:
'Witty, engrossing and ribald ... it misses nothing in its evocation of a bygone time and place'

(Independent on Sunday)
