A Libertus Mystery of Roman Britain - The marriage of a former vestal virgin is always an important event, so the anticipated arrival of such a bride in Glevum is the excuse for an even more lavish banquet than usual on the Emperor's birthday feast. However, when Audelia's covered carriage finally arrives, the lady in question is nowhere to be found. Libertus investigates and makes a gruesome discovery, suggesting that Druid rebels may have been involved. But when another lady disappears, Libertus finds himself in a race against time to ensure the safety of the 'vanishing vestals'. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

I've yet to catch Rowe in an historical mistake (although that may say more about me than Rowe) but it's so jarring when one does spot an anachronism in a piece of historical fiction. I love the way she manages to write about a culture with slavery, noting the abuses, but not superimposing a modern attitude. I have also always loved that the hero is not young. I can so relate to aching knees, and a preference for simple foods. The worst thing about having enjoyed the whole series is that I have to wait for the next book. (although I can enjoy recommending it to friends) ( )
