Description

Venus in Copper is a gripping historical mystery set in Ancient Rome. Lindsey Davis weaves an authentic tale with exceptional characterisation and a tightly woven plot, drawing readers into a world of corruption and intrigue.

When Marcus Didius Falco takes on new clients, he hopes for a better life or at least a better apartment. Instead, he finds himself entangled in a complex web of violent rent-racketeers, poisoners, and women with dangerous designs. With his highborn girlfriend's indecision and his own uncertain future, Falco must navigate the treacherous landscape of Vespasian's Rome.

As he pursues a mysterious fortune-hunter named Severina Zotica, Falco faces a range of challenges that test his skills as an investigator. With its fast-moving plot, witty dialogue, and atmospheric setting, Venus in Copper is a compelling read for fans of historical mystery and detective fiction.
