Shadows in Bronze Davis, Lindsey

**Shadows in Bronze by Lindsey Davis - Historical Mystery**

Meet Marcus Didius Falco, Rome's cheekiest private informer, back for another deliciously twisted adventure in AD 71. When Emperor Vespasian sends Falco to track down a conspiracy involving stolen treasure and political skulduggery, our hero finds himself dodging assassins, unraveling family secrets, and getting tangled up with the enigmatic Helena Justina. Davis brilliantly weaves authentic Roman history with laugh-out-loud humor and genuine suspense.

Perfect for fans of historical fiction who appreciate wit over pomposity, mystery lovers craving something beyond the usual suspects, and anyone who enjoys their ancient Rome served with a hefty side of sarcasm. Lindsey Davis revolutionized the historical mystery genre with her Falco series, proving that the past doesn't have to be stuffy.

This preloved paperback from Patina Paperbacks has character - just like Falco himself.
