Publisher's Summary

Fresh from his trip to Britain, Falco needs to re-establish his presence in Rome. A minor role in the trial of a senator entangles him in the machinations of Silius Italicus and Paccius Africanus, two real-life lawyers at the top of their trade. These notorious ex-consuls play a dangerous game, where success brings rich pickings but a mistrial or a wrong verdict entails huge financial penalties. The senator is convicted but then dies, apparently by suicide. However, Silius hires Falco and his young associates to prove it was murder.

Not as good as earlier Falco books.

I have loved the Falco series up to this one, but there isn’t as much adventure or action in this book. It is very much about the law, interesting but not exciting. Narration is clear but rather flat.
Annoying that the chapters aren’t separated, makes it hard to return to your place.

Chapters out of sync

Loved the story and the narrative but the chapters were out of sync, clumped together in bundles. Makes it hard for the listener to set time limits.

Falco is Fabulous!

What could be more fun than solving murderous adventures while dressed in a toga! I am a long time fan of the books but the Audible version is fabulous! I can now do other things while ‘reading’...marvellous.
