But everything goes wrong from there - firstshe acquires a mysterious illness, then a young man is horrendously murdered and she escapes from house arrest.
Marcus Didius Falco, hired to find her and return her to custodybefore Saturnalia is over, is pitted against his old rival, the Chief Spy Anacrites.The two of them areina race against timeto find the fugitive before the public learns of the situation,making the government look stupid.
