Recensione:

an entertaining read . . . an enjoyable romp. (Historical Novels Review)

Praise for David Wishart:
'Like Chandler's Marlowe, Corvinus wisecracks his way through a weary world of murder and intrigue until he hunts down the truth. A taut thriller in which ancient Rome springs to life'

(The Times)

Innate humour and pace carry one through to the tragi-comic climax (Irish Times)

It is evident that Wishart is a fine scholar and perfectly at home in the period (Sunday Times)

Wishart creates a pungent, throbbingly vibrant Rome (Highland News Group)

Descrizione del libro:
