- Book 3 of 12: The Roma Sub Rosa
A mystery of ancient Rome by the author of "Arms Of Nemesis."
When Gordianus the Finder deserts the fierce intrigues of Rome for domesticity on an Etruscan farm, his brilliant patron, the orator Cicero, draws him back with a curious proposal: keep Catilina, Cicero's radical rival, under a watchful eye.
Reluctantly, Gordianus complies -- and soon, despite himself, becomes intrigued by the notorious populist politician. Could Catilina really be conspiring against the Republic? Or are Cicero's accusation no more than vicious lies? Questioning his loyalty to his own patron, Gordianus comes to question even more when he discovers a headless corpse in his stables and is suddenly swept into a mystery more dangerous than any he has ever known.

Store description
I personally handle each book that I list and use a description that is unique to that listing. I DO NOT use generic descriptions. X-Library books always marked as such. Dust jackets will be covered with a protective (Brodart) mylar cover for their protection. I have been selling books online since 1995. I also sold books through a bookstore for 13 years. Books are well wrapped for shipping, all books shipped using a cardboard sleeve, not just a flimsy envelope. Pictures of books available upon request, don't be fooled by STOCK pictures with the book listings. Thank you for your business!…
