FROM BOOK 1:
The slave Calidus is freed when his beloved master, a senator, dies. However, while neither he nor the dead man’s wife believe that the death was natural, Rome is a place where power and status speak louder than justice. Having secured the freedom of his own wife, Calidus sets about solving the murder, and in doing so takes the reader with him through every aspect of Roman society, from the slaves’ quarters to the emperor’s household.
