"The emperor Domitian: talented tyrant, deluded despot. A reluctant hero, Gaius Vinius Clodianus is hand-picked for high rank in Praetorian Guard, a brave man striving for decency in a world of corruption and deceit. Flavia Lucilla, tending the privileged women at court, hears the intimate secrets of a ruler who plays with the lives of his subjects as if he were indeed a careless god. Unwilling witnesses to Domitian's descent into insanity, these ordinary people must choose between their sworn duty to protect the Emperor and an act of courage that will change the future of Rome."--Back cover.
Quotes by Lindsey Davis
From WikiquoteI like my women in a few wisps of drapery: then I can hope for a chance to remove the wisps. If they start out with nothing I tend to get depressed because either they have just stripped off for someone else or, in my line of work, they are usually dead.
Some men are born lucky. Others are born Marcus Didius Falco.
Popular men who laugh at your jokes pose a threat which blatant villains can never command.
