Things are going well for Decius Caecilius Metellus. He is
"praetor peregrinus, " which means he has to judge a case or two
outside Rome. His first stop is Campania, "Italy's most popular
resort district." He and his wife, Julia, are happy for a change of
scenery. But the good times end when, in a town near Vesuvius, a
priest's daughter is murdered. Decius must find her killer and keep
the mob off a young boy whom everyone blames but he believes to be
innocent. Decius may have acquired more prestige, but he's also
acquired more trouble.
With his SPQR novels, John Maddox Roberts has written a
satisfying and entertaining historical mystery series. The stakes
just keep getting higher in this latest atmospheric puzzle.
