This is such a nostalgic book series for me.
What books take you back to childhood?

Pickpick

The novel is set in Ostia and Rome in September AD 79. Jonathan is the primary character in this novel, as he seeks out the mother he believed long dead and learns the tragic secrets of his family history. For a children's mystery there are some accurate and interestingly researched allusions to history 👍🏼
