Description

Gordianus the Finder has achieved his dream of a peaceful life in the Etruscan countryside. However, he is soon drawn back into the intrigue and corruption of Rome when his longtime patron Cicero requests his help with keeping watch over a radical populist senator suspected of conspiring against the state. As Gordianus becomes embroiled in the senator's activities, he finds himself at the centre of a web of deceit and murder. With his family's safety at risk, Gordianus must navigate the treacherous world of Roman politics to uncover the truth. This gripping mystery is set against the backdrop of ancient Rome, where loyalty, power and corruption are ever-present threats.
