Si Tacuisses: An Agent Strabo Mystery Novella

By Alex A. Zudor

Book Overview

Ancient times, modern sins

Sex, greed, murder: you name it, the Romans had it
Enters our hero, an irreverent investigator with a major character flaw-decency.

"Si Tacuisses" is a tongue-in-cheek historical mystery that takes the readers through some of Roman life's daily pleasures, from the baths to the brothels, while touching on the two opposing philosophical schools of Stoicism and Epicureanism. Perfect for Lindsey Davis, David Wishart, and Steven Saylor fans.

In the final days before Governor Geta's departure to his new posting, his court philosopher is murdered. Cleomenes' horribly mutilated body was discovered in a dirty alley by a prostitute working in the nearby brothel.

Was Cleomenes the victim of a robbery? Or was his death the result of a heated philosophical debate?

Follow Strabo's new adventure as he struggles to unveil the convoluted threads of this puzzling mystery.
