Synopsis

A story of murder and double-cross during the Roman Civil War puts Gordianus the Finder in a tough spot when Pompey takes his son-in-law hostage, and Gordianus must prove that his son, who works for Pompey's enemy Caesar, did not kill Pompey's beloved cousin to save both their lives. Tour.

About the Author

Steven Saylor has had a lifelong fascination with ancient Rome, beginning with the drive-in movies of his boyhood (Cleopatra, Spartacus, Ben Hur), on to his degree in history from the University of Texas, and through his appearances on the History Channel as an expert on Roman politics and life. He is the author of seven volumes in the Roma Sub Rosa series, featuring Gordianus the Finder. He splits his time between homes in Austin, Texas, and Berkeley, California.
