About this listen

I was the new boy, so they saddled me with the worst jobs. Rome, AD 71. Against his better judgement, Falco secretly disposes of a decayed corpse for the Emperor Vespasian, then heads for the beautiful Bay of Naples with his best friend Petronius. He conveniently forgets to mention to his companion that this will be no holiday. They have been sent to investigate the murderous members of a failed coup, now sunning themselves in luxurious villas and on fancy yachts.

The idyllic seaside location further complicates his seemingly doomed romance with Helena Justina. The deeper he probes, the more it seems Helena is inextricably connected to the elite plotters, in ways that the smitten Falco cannot bear to contemplate.

Loss

To be honest, I struggled to listen to this book. The cheeky cockney accent breathed a life and character in the performance of the first book anD I felt the loss with this performance. I feel the narrator could do Shakespeare well but this could have also been the first since it got better to finish well. Committed to the series and characters from the first book anyway so on to #3
