The Case of Minerva

A body in a ditch; a love unrequited; a rift between families: there’s been a murder in Ancient Rome

For Secundus, son of the high priest, his routine was settled. Until he found her.

Now, with his fate re-written, he is forced into investigating the death of the bride-to-be by a dream from the goddess Minerva, and finds relationships at breaking point as Rome reels from his discovery.

With only three days in which to solve the case failure is never far away as Secundus, filled with self-doubt, deals with deceit and lies that lead him to look closer to home for the killer.

Read this first book in a new series from Francis Mulhern, author of the Camillus, Dictator of Rome series.
