The Accusers

Marcus Didius Falco, Book 15

By: Lindsey Davis

Narrated by: Jamie Glover

Fresh from his trip to Britain, Falco needs to re-establish his presence in Rome. A minor role in the trial of a senator entangles him in the machinations of Silius Italicus and Paccius Africanus, two real-life lawyers at the top of their trade. These notorious ex-consuls play a dangerous game, where success brings rich pickings but a mistrial or a wrong verdict entails huge financial penalties. The senator is convicted but then dies, apparently by suicide. However, Silius hires Falco and his young associates to prove it was murder.©2003 Lindsey Davis (P)2014 Audible, Inc.

Critic reviews

"Jamie Glover is delightful as the indomitable Falco." (AudioFile)

The best narrator for this series

I really liked the narrator - he had just the right nuances for the many voices. I don’t mind Christian Rodska but dislike Gordon Griffin who makes Falco come across as a wheedling creep. I would be great if the Falco stories recorded by him could be redone by this narrator.

Love this series

Falco et al, have developed since the start of this series. Mystery and humor are always there. Even though different narrator Jamie Glover did a fine job. Falco his wife Helena and the rest of the crew have developed since start of series. Davis always keeps you guessing. Love this series.

An Imperial Treasure

You can't go wrong with Falco. He wants to be a ruthless hard case but his tender heart won't let him....his tender heart and Helena, the love of his life! This case shows a more intellectual side to Falco. As usual he is bruised, but Falco also wins some kind of victory in the end. Jamie Glover does a fine job with the narration.

Law and order - Roman style

Continues to build on previous characters. Gives an interesting look at the Roma legal system in a humorous vein. Good detective story - followers of this series will not be disappointed.
