Ancient Roman sleuth Marcus Corvinus is despatched to Gaul on a
personal mission for the emperor. June, AD 42. The emperor Claudius
himself has requested Corvinus's help in investigating the murder
of a Gallic wine merchant, stabbed to death as he was taking an
afternoon nap in his summer-house at Lugdunum. Not especially happy
at being despatched to Gaul, and even less enamoured of his
enforced travelling companion, the insufferable Domitius Crinas,
Corvinus is increasingly frustrated as it becomes clear that the
dead man's extended family and friends are hiding something from
him. Unused to strange Gallic customs and facing an uphill struggle
getting anyone to talk freely to a Roman, Corvinus is convinced
that there's more to this murder than meets the eye - but, a
stranger in a strange land, how is he going to prove it . . .?
