Author Q&A
September AD 80. Flavia and her friends go to Rome to celebrate the Festival of Jupiter at Senator Cornix's town house. When a famous racehorse goes missing, Nubia sets out to recover it. The four friends find themselves caught up in a plot against one of the rival factions, the Greens. Who is trying to sabotage the charioteers? Could it be an inside job, or someone with a grudge from long ago? How many men and horses will die before the killer is caught?
'The part where Nubia and one of the stole racehorses are trapped in a burning villa was so exciting that I god told fof three times for reading under the duvet with a torch after midnight.'
