Falco and Helena Justina are happily married with a grown up family. Now it is the turn of their adopted daughter, Flavia Alba, to take centre stage following her father as a “private investigator”. Not, perhaps what one might expect but Davis does her research. Once again she brings Rome to raucous life, all grit and grime , while Flavia is a lively, likeable protagonist well able to step into Falco's shoes - definitely one to enjoy.
