Flavia Albia is the used little girl of Marcus Didius Falco and Helena Justina. From her mom, she learned how to merge at all degrees of modern culture; from her dad, she learned the tricks of the common professional trade. But her wits and (frequently) pointed tongue are hers alone. Now, working as a private informer in Rome through the reign of Domitian, Flavia has taken over her father's old ramshackle digs at Fountain Courtroom in the Surbura district, where she plies her trade with energy, conviction, and the usual Falco luck. Just lately hired to help research a fatal car accident, she discovers herself jammed with a dreadful person for a customer and facing a well-heeled, well-connected opposition. That's, until her client unexpectedly dies under what might be called "suspicious circumstances." While this is not a huge damage for society, this can be a damage for Flavia Albia's pocket. A whole lot worse, it's just one of some similar deaths for which she now discovers herself under suspicion. Before things go from abysmal to worse, Flavia must sort out what is going on, and who's responsible.
