See Delphi and Die

A Marcus Didius Falco Mystery

By: Lindsey Davis

Narrated by: Simon Prebble

It's AD 76, during the reign of Vespasian, and Marcus Didius Falco has achieved much in his life. He's joined the equestrian rank, allowing him to marry Helena Justina, the woman he's been keeping time with the past few years. But that doesn't mean all is quiet for Falco, Helena, and their two young daughters.

By trade he is an informer, a man who looks into sticky situations, and he's been hired to pry his errant brother-in-law away from a murder investigation. Which means Falco himself must take it on. To investigate the suspicious goings-on and the shady dealings of a fly-by-night travel agency connected to the case, Falco and his wife, Helena, travel to Olympia in Greece under the guise of being tourists interested in the classic sites. With two people already missing from the packaged tour, things only get stickier when two more - including Falco's brother-in-law - disappear in what is Falco's most complex and dangerous case yet.

Another great story.

This is definitely my favorite of the last three.
Simon Prebble is The Voice of these people I’ve come to know and love and follow.

Narrator

Like this narrator of the Falco books so much better than the other one. He makes Falco sound like an intelligent person with class. The other narrator makes him sound sleazy.

Worst of a great series

Was it fan fiction? Was it Pausanias come to life and trying to make a living in the 21st century by abducting Lindsay Davis and writing in his name? Can’t say but avoid this one as you would Pelops Stew!
