Just prior to her death, Sosia had accidentally become involved in an investigation of silver smuggling.
When Sosia Camilla, a beautiful, young golden-haired girl, meets a tragic end in an old warehouse, Marcus determines that he will stop at nothing to find the killer. Marcus, an Imperial informer (translation: private detective) trying to scrape together a living, narrates the story with a breezy, humorous style making this romp through Flavian Rome a real treat for the reader. The Silver Pigs, by Lindsey Davis, is the first book in the Marcus Didius Falco canon, a series of detective novels set in ancient Rome. I like mysteries, I love historical fiction, and it’s always an added bonus to read a book that’s part of a series - if it tickles your fancy, you know that there’s more just like it.
