Book Overview
When Corvinus receives a letter from his adopted daughter, Marilla, with a tantalizing PS mentioning a possible?murder, he hot-foots it to Castrimoenium at once. Not everyone, however,?agrees that Lucius Hostilius was murdered. Poison was apparently the means of death, but Lucius was terminally ill. It was only a matter of time. Although he hasn't any official investigative status, Corvinus can't resist doing a little amateur sleuthing. And he has barely begun when two other corpses turn up and he is formally on the case. Lucius had been suffering something of a personality change because of his illness, so there is no shortage of suspects among friends and family whom he had antagonized. But Corvinus goes up many a blind alley before arriving at the heart of the mystery. As we follow Marcus Corvinus, clue by clue, on his 10th case, we allow ourselves to be diverted by rumors of Meton's love life--and by an authentic recipe for fish pickle sauce.
