An Ode to Poison ^Featured

What would compel a girl to set foot in the house of Rome’s most devious and vindictive senator?

How about murder?

When the wife of Senator Gracchus is found dead under suspicious circumstances, Livia Aemilia agrees to help solve the crime. Yes, it’s a big risk, but it will be worth it if she can prove Gracchus poisoned his wife.

Then Livia and her husband Avitus would finally be free of Gracchus and his nefarious schemes to ruin them. With justice on their side and God guiding their plans, what could go wrong?

The more Livia digs, the more it looks like Gracchus is guilty of poisoning his wife. Until the next victim dies, and everything she thought she knew is turned upside down. 

A fast-paced, witty, and inspiring tale of vengeance vs. mercy set in the Roman world of the early church.
