Description
December AD 39. A Winter Festival holiday at his adopted daughter's home in the Alban Hills is disrupted by the discovery of a local politician, Quintus Caesius, beaten to death at the rear entrance of the town brothel.
As Marcus Corvinus investigates the murder, he uncovers a web of small-town secrets, bitter feuds, and malicious gossip. The victim's reputation as a pillar of the community is revealed to be far from spotless, with several individuals having reason to bear him a grudge. But who would have hated him enough to kill him?
Set in a world away from the sophistication of Rome, this mystery explores the darker side of human nature and the complexities of small-town life.
