Didius Falco, first-century detective, is confronting Roman legal forces that may just destroy him--and his family. Fresh from a trip…
to far-flung Londinium in 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 two powerful lawyers. The senator is convicted but then dies, apparently by suicide. It may have been a legal move to protect his heirs; Falco is hired to prove it was murder. As he shows off his talents in the role of advocate, Falco exposes himself to a tangle of upper-class secrets and powerful elements in Rome's legal hierarchy that may have unintended--if not fatal--consequences.

unattached woman in Spring Hill, Texas, wants to nurse him back to health. That includes his childhood friend Claire Davidson - the only person who understands how damaged he really feels. In high school, she chose his best friend over him. According to Riley's rules, that should make her off-limits forever. But when Claire suggests a no-strings fling, he can't refuse. Claire always wanted Riley, but she also craved the safety and stability he couldn't offer. So she chose another path, only to end up crazier about him than ever. She's even convinced herself that this time she won't be devastated when he leaves. Yet once Riley realizes the depth of Claire's feelings - and his own - he'll have to make the ultimate choice: return to the job he loves or stay home for the woman who's always lived in his heart.
