DAVIS, LINDSEY - One Virgin Too Many
London, Arrow Books. 2000, Reprint. (ISBN: 0099799715) Trade Paperback. Book, Set in Vespasian's Rome. yet another adventure involving the detecting skills of Marcus Didius Falco (and Helena) "A frightened child approaches Roman informer Marcus Didius 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, he 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 - closely watched by Titus Caesar, whose new ladylove Berenice is under suspicion from scandalmongers, and by his two ex-partners Petronius and Anacrites, who both have personal reasons to hope he will slip up. Aelianus, the resentful brother of Falco"s girlfriend Helena, is also aiming to join the establishment. In the Sacred Grove of the Arval Brothers, Aelianus stumbles on a gruesome corpse, which then disappears. He too asks Falco for advice, and as their delicate enquiries proceed among Rome"s most ancient and influential cults, it becomes clear that the murder, its obvious cover-up, and the fate of the missing child may all be mysteriously linked. Finding Gaia is then a race against time, ending in Falco"s most terrifying exploit yet.. ". Near Fine.
