The Ghosts of Glevum: A Libertus Mystery of Roman Britain

Rosemary Rowe is the pseudonym of Rosemary Aitken, a highly qualified academic, who has written more than half a dozen best selling textbooks on English Language and communication. She has written fiction for many years under her married name. It is always nice for the host when a guest visit's the vomitorium, it is a sign that the host has performed his or her duties to perfection and the guest has `pigged out' on the fine fare put before him. But when an honoured guest is found dead in there it is not a good recommendation for the food that has been put before him. Libertus' patron Marcus Septimus is arrested on suspicion of causing the death. But when Libertus himself is also accused he is forced to go on the run. Hiding out in a not too salubrious part of the city Libertus soon finds himself in danger and this time there is no one to come to his aid . . .
