Overview

Decius Caecilius Metellus is moving up in the world. He's won some money and glory fighting pirates in the Mediterranean and expects a speedy election to the office of praetor.

That all changes when a man he's never seen before publicly accuses him of corruption. Decius and his powerful family of Rome's leading politicians scramble to prepare a defense. However, the day of the trial they are greeted with a strange surprise on the steps of the courthouse: the corpse of the man who made the accusation. Now Decius is up against a much more serious charge of murder. It may cost him his chance to run for office, but not if he can help it.

Roberts once again masterfully sets Decius and his adventures against the background of this famed and crumbling Republic, enriching his story with historical detail and the immortal personalities of the day.

    fascinating look at Ancient Rome

    Nobleman Decius Caecilius Metellus the Younger knows that the fame and acclaim he recently received when he fought pirates in the Mediterranean (see IX: THE PRINCESS AND THE PIRATES) coupled with the influence of his politically connected family make him a sure shot at being elected to the office of Praetor. He envisions beyond that of rather quickly becoming a governor. --- However, just prior to the election, the unthinkable occurs when an apparent stranger publicly proclaims that Decius is corrupt and has the proof. Decius and his family quickly regroup to try to figure out the best course to overcome the accusation of Marcus Fulvius, who seems to have had no motive except ¿altruistically¿ exposing him. Facing a trial on the charges of public corruption, Decius arrives at the courthouse only to find the corpse of Fulvius awaiting him on the stairs. While Rome believes he or his associates killed the accuser, Decius investigates seeking the truth to regain his tarnished reputation. --- As always the incredibly fascinating look at Ancient Rome makes this a worthy reading experience as the whodunit though clever takes a back seat to the tour of the city at an era when the Republic is collapsing. Decius is at his best as he turns from arrogant victor (before the vote has happened) to beleaguered victim struggling to prove his innocence when even his family assumes he is corrupt and probably a killer. Fans of the series or anyone who appreciates a historical mystery with the emphasis on the history will enjoy the tenth SPRQ tale. --- Harriet Klausner
