Publisher's Summary
Marcus Didius Alexander Postumus is a special boy. He is 12 or perhaps 11. He has two mothers and various possible fathers, so he worries who will take care of him. He is self-confident yet vulnerable, intelligent yet sinister. He knows not many people like him.
When his birth mother, Thalia the snake-dancer, takes him to live with her troupe of exotic performers, Postumus sees it as useful experience even though it involves him mucking out menagerie cages. No one anticipates how much havoc he will wreak. On his first day a tragedy occurs. No one else cares, so Postumus decides he alone must solve this crime and impose retribution on the guilty.
As son and brother to the famous investigators Falco and Albia, he knows murder is punished by execution. Postumus single-mindedly sets out to accomplish this, sidetracked by nothing, not even a rehearsal of Falco's legendary play The Spook Who Spoke....

Fabulously funny family history :-)
Posthumous unleashed,
unsuspecting company,
indignant invertebrate
circus curfuffles,
a chortle fest.
Excellent book, thank you Lindsey :-)

Go Postumus!
In previous books I wasn't sure of Postumus' character but came to love him in this. I loved his reasoning, his view of the world and his (misguided) insights into other people's behaviour.

Cute
Nice little side story from the childs perspective. An interesting segway that fills in a bit more character colour
