Title: A Very Good Read
Review: For anyone new to David Wishart's main character Marcus Corvinus and they have read any of the "Falco" novels by Lindsey Davis, the Marcus Corvinus novels are in the same "style:" A Roman sleuth whose manner of speech is out of character with the surroundings he lives in i.e. Ancient Rome. He has a beautiful and intellingent wife called Perilla, and a "butler" who is a total snob and who in the main looks down his nose at Marcus. Another member of the family is the chef who tends to get drunk and sulk in the kitchen. I do not want to give the plot away so why not buy the book, you won't regret it. All David Wishart's books are well written and researched and the sights and sounds of Ancient Rome leap off the page at you.
