Rome, 48BC - a time of chaos and uncertainty. A beautiful young seer dies in the arms of Gordianus the Finder - and of course he has to discover who she is and who killed her! As usual, Saylor writes with real care, and detailed research brings the teeming streets of Rome to life in a way that a history text can't. If you haven't yet discovered Saylor's novels of Ancient Rome then I recommend you try one!
