Second Act
Second Act | Marilyn Todd
3 posts | 1 read
The latest adventure for the Roman sleuth and glamorous heroine of ""I, Claudia Busy, busy, busy . . . A house full of actors, Saturnalia coming up, the Guilds to outmanoeuvre, creditors on her back and, ahem, a slight cash-flow problem to deal with; a mother-in-law straining her nerves to breaking point and a certain security policeman, well, disturbing her senses . . . and Claudia doesn't even know about the murderer lurking in her house. Nevertheless, self-interest and a certain weakness for her aristocratic policeman lure her into lending some unasked-for help to his investigation into the Saturnalia Rapist, a mysterious and brutal figure terrorising Rome at this most festive season. Will she manage to unmask him, or will she just get herself into a whole lot of trouble?

Pickpick

In the run up to Saturnalia, a rapist is on the loose in Rome. Is he a copycat or did Orbilio catch the wrong man? Claudia's insurance fraud is catching up with her and she needs money fast. Is sponsoring a troupe of actors a way out?

I thought Claudia and Orbilio had reached some sort of understanding of each other in the previous book, but apparently not. We're back to banter again. Not that I'm complaining, mind -- it's good quality banter.

‘If I wasn‘t the very soul of discretion,‘ Doris said, ‘I could name you twenty aristocratic wives who have not so much surrendered their virtue to that boy as lobbed it at him.‘
