Product description

Find out what else has been going on between each exciting installment of the Roman Mysteries series

Between writing her bestselling novels, Caroline Lawrence has penned several short stories. Each of these stories is as compelling and exciting as the novels, full of the sights and sounds of ancient Rome. Here are all the mini-mysteries that occurred between the stories of books seven to 14, providing even more coverage of events in the lives of our four detectives during the dangerous, exciting reign of Emperor Titus.

« Flavia & Friends Are Back, and Rocking the Roman World »

Caroline Lawrence has come through once again with another exciting and entertaining collection of mini-mysteries to complement her 17-volume opus: The Roman Mysteries. As with her previous collection of mini-mysteries (Trimalchio's Feast), these stories occur at various points along the Roman Mysteries timeline (Caroline lets us know precisely where each mini-mystery fits in along her carefully constructed RM story arc, with brief introductions). Everything fits into place - just as our heroine Flavia Gemina neatly puts together her available clues to solve each mystery.

While fans may be saddened to read that Caroline has finished writing The Roman Mysteries, fans (who have been growing up over the years that Caroline has been writing these novels) can take heart in Caroline's promise of an upcoming Flavian Trilogy - intended for older readers.

I know I'll be looking forward to further tales of Roman mystery from Caroline Lawrence!
