Falco and his family are staying in Londinium when a body is found, pushed head first in the well of a bar, the Shower of Gold. Unfortunately, not only does Falco know him and had recently ordered him out of the country in exile to Gaul, the man had also been a lifelong friend of the British chieftain and favourite of Vespasian's, King Togidubnus. Falco and Petronius investigate.

Again narrated with full involvement by Christian Rodska, this is the 14th tale in the excellent series following the exploits of Marcus Didius Falco, ex soldier turned informer in the Roman Empire under Verspasian. Whilst it is even more enjoyable to read the books in sequence, each does stand alone and all, including The Jupiter Myth, are highly recommended to anyone who enjoys being immersed in the history and atmosphere of Roman times as well as a good mystery thriller replete with sword fights, bars and general humour.

Lindsey Davis' Falco novels are always a joy and Christian Rodska absolutely does them justice with a stellar performance.
Her archeological and historical research is second to none and the way she brings 1st century Roman London to life in this novel is incredible.
The murder mystery is, as always, the centre to the story but the character development is beautifully written and there are several subplots so you never lose interest.
The story is fast paced and keeps you listening.
I would say it helps to have read or listened to previous Falco novels but it is not essential.

Fast paced and fantastic performance

Running on immediately after ‘A body in the Bath House’, this adventure is so full of incident, intrigue, will-they-won’t-they, that its pace is often breath-taking. A bit of a Roman ‘The Sweeney’. It is significant for the challenging introduction of a major new character that really surprised me. You will see what I mean. Davis is excellent in being able to loop-back and re-introduce earlier characters and give them more room to show themselves. The adventure’s title is a great idea, by the way. The performance is exemplary. Voice characterisations are very well managed and consistent. I simply devoured this listen/book and enjoyed it so thoroughly.

One of My Real Favourites

Well read. I love listening to stories of Falco’s Rome. This was exciting all the way through.

Fast pace, action and a love story on the side.
