Marilyn Todd

Marilyn Todd is a critically acclaimed author of short stories and historical thrillers, who "paints antiquity with a particularly suspenseful brush and skillfully tangled plots" (Booklist). Her Roman series features "a gorgeous rich bitch, plotting and spying to survive adverse fortune" (Daily Mail). The Greek novels feature "an abundance of historical tidbits and robust prose" (Kirkus Reviews). All her work embraces humour, suspense and a lively sense of drama, often inspired by the places she visits. In 2015, her short story "Blood Red Roses" won one of Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine's prestigious Readers Awards. The year before, "The Wickedest Town in the West" scooped the same award. And another story, "Room for Improvement", about quickie divorces in 1950s Brighton, was nominated for a Shamus. She and her husband currently live on a French hilltop surrounded by vineyards and woods, and when she isn't killing people, Marilyn enjoys cooking. Which is pretty much the same thing.

Description

Claudia Seferius is broke. Skint. Cleaned out. Bust. When her teenage stepdaughter Flavia is abducted, Claudia can’t just throw money at the problem. The cash simply isn’t there – since her husband died, his fellow businessmen have banded together to freeze her out of trade. The frustratingly delectable Orbilio can’t help – he’s been placed under strict house arrest after a skeleton was found walled up in the house that’s been in his family for three generations. With the Games of Apollo due to start in two days (a series of festivals, frolics, feasting and tomfoolery), Claudia has saddled herself with the job of playing tag with the kidnapper. Meanwhile, mysterious Egyptian cult Brothers of Horus is growing in popularity with Roman citizens. The only problem is, several of its young female members are beginning to experience strange disturbances…
