Catilina's Riddle

Meer over het boek

In the year 63 B.C., Gordianus leaves behind the corruption of Rome and retires to a farm in the Etruscan countryside. His calm pastoral life is disturbed, however, when a newly elected consul asks him to spy on a rabble-rousing senator. Soon, Gordianus finds himself drawn into a violent power struggle on the eve of an election. Matters worsen when a corpse is found on his farm--and Gordianus must confront a deadly mystery that threatens his life.
