  <default_description>&quot;I haven't read historical fiction this good since I, CLAUDIUS by Robert Graves and PERSIAN BOY by Mary Renault--and this is a lot funnier.&quot;&lt;br&gt;DETROIT FREE PRESS&lt;br&gt;He's Rome's favorite son, and of late, Emperor Vespasian's favorite palace spy, charged with finding the culprits who are plotting his imperial demise. In the meanwhile, Marcus Didius Falco has unfinished business with one citizen, Helen Justina, a high-born beauty he has given his heart to. And at these wages, his heart is all he can afford to render unto her--which causes its own problems.&lt;br&gt;The second in Lindsey Davis' Ancient Rome detective series.</default_description>
