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.
