Reseña del libro "Murder on Hadrian's Wall: A Romano-British Murder Mystery (en Inglés)"
Have you ever wanted to know the Latin word for "underwear"? Or have you ever wondered what life was like for a soldier stationed on Hadrian's Wall? Maybe you just want to read a deviously and complicated historical "whodunnit", as Centurion Versillius faces down the Cult of Mithras, his superiors, the civil administration, the townspeople and even his own men in the search for a vicious killer. Travel back to AD 350, to find a Roman Britain which had existed for centuries, but was going through a period of dramatic change. The ties that held the empire together were fraying, as Britannia, the most northerly part of the empire, was finding out. Not altogether the best time to have a particularly nasty murderer stalking the streets of your Romano-British town...
