About this listen

"All the problems I know about are family ones."

A frightened child approaches Roman informer Falco, pleading for help. Nobody believes Gaia's story that a relation wants to kill her--and neither does he. Beset by his own family troubles, by his new responsibilities as procurator of the sacred poultry, and by the continuing search for a new partner, Falco turns her away. Immediately he regrets it.

Gaia has been selected as the new Vestal Virgin, and when she disappears Falco is officially asked to investigate. Finding Gaia is then a race against time, ending in Falco's most terrifying exploit yet.

I love the Falco series - entertaining, colourful and humorous, with lots of quirky minor characters. I particularly enjoy the wonderful detail about life in Ancient Rome - brings the stories vividly to life. Gordon Griffin’s evocative narration enhances the pleasure.

This is another superb offering by the author. I am a fan of Falco and have read or heard virtually the whole series. I will not go into the plot, but it is well thought out and of her usual standard.

Excellent

Absolutely love this book. We are delivered a thrilling story that sends you this way and that and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. I did work out the mystery elements but still ended up on the edge of my metaphorical seat right to the end. If you are a fan, One virgin too many won’t let you down. If you are not a fan yet, go to an earlier book so you can get to know the characters and their backgrounds the easy Lindsey Davis intended. You won’t be disappointed that you did!

Utterly thrilling and enjoyable
