**THIS IS A PAST EVENT**

Rome, the very end of December. The Field of Mars is packed with monuments, none more beautiful than Domitian’s new theatre and stadium. But the area has been overtaken by a series of ugly events: several elaborately, almost theatrically staged murders. In the latest of her wonderful Roman detective mysteries, Lindsey gives the case to Flavia Albia and not her father, Falco. And then the plot thickens! The Falco and Flavia Albia stories are bestsellers and have gathered wonderful reviews. ‘Light-hearted, witty and effortlessly clever’ said The Observer.
