Used Book – Rubicon, Steven Saylor, André Doummergues

Caesar has crossed the Rubicon and the Romans, governed by his rival Pompey, tremble for the future of their city. Patricians and senators flee the city to escape the proconsul's armies, leaving it defenseless against bandits and looters. In such chaos, an assassination could almost go unnoticed. Except when the victim is one of Pompey's cousins and the body is found in the garden of Rome's most astute detective, Gordianus. The investigator has no choice but to take on this difficult case. But in a dying republic, on the eve of the civil war from which the Empire will emerge, political alliances muddle the waters, and Gordianus will need great skill to solve this investigation.
