In Roman Blood Gordianus the Finder - the large, eccentric, philosophical investigator whose famed skills and integrity have made him much sought after in Rome - is hired by the young Cicero to acquit or convict a man accused of murdering his own father, an ugly, delicate case that soon produces dangerous fireworks.

The First Book of the Roma Sub Rosa Series
Saylor knows Roman history quite well and certainly knows how to blend it with fictional characters of the era with this thriller that began with Roman Blood. This is first of the series that is hard to put down once you start. A real page turner!
