Synopsis
When rich man-turned-rabble-rouser Publius Clodius is murdered on the Appian Way, his rival, Milo, is targeted for revenge, beginning a series of chaotic events, and it is up to Gordianus to return to the deserted road to find out the truth and save Rome. Reprint., Torchlight flickers on elegant marble walls. The sound of a mob echoes in the street. The year is 52 B.C. and the naked body of Publius Clodius is about to be carried through the teeming streets of Rome. Clodius, a rich man turned rabble-rouser, was slain on the most splendid road in the world, the Appian Way. Now Clodius's rival, Milo, is being targeted for revenge, and the city teeters on the verge of chaos. An explosive trail will feature the best oration of Cicero and Marc Anthony, while Gordianus the Finder has been charged by Pompey the Great himself to look further into the murder. With the Senate House already in ashes, and his own life very much in danger, Gordianus must return to a deserted stretch of the Appian Way-to find the truth that can save a city filled with the madness and glory.
