The Silver Pigs

Lindsey Davis: The Silver Pigs (UK 2008)

From the Publisher:
The new emperor seeks an experienced agent...
One hot day in the Forum, Marcus Didius Falco, private informer, runs into sweet sixteen-year-old Sosia Camillina. She is fleeing for her life. Rescuing her is the start of a dangerous game, involving stolen imperial ingots and a dark political plot. Commissioned by mysterious, highly-placed clients for a job he knows he does not want, Falco is drawn on the long trail to Britain, where he endures physical hardship and heartache in the deadly silver mines.

Mother knows best, but even she cannot help her boy once he meets Helena Justina, a Senator's daughter who is connected to the traitors he has sworn to expose. She is out of his class; he is out of his depth - but for Falco the challenge is irresistible...

The Silver Pigs is the first book in Lindsey Davis' bestselling Falco series.

The Silver Pigs

Lindsey Davis: The Silver Pigs (USA 2006)

From the Publisher:
When Marcus Didius Falco, a Roman "informer" who has a nose for trouble that's sharper than most, encounters Sosia Camillina in the Forum, he senses immediately all is not right with the pretty girl. She confesses to him that she is fleeing for her life, and Falco makes the rash decision to rescue her -- a decision he will come to regret. For Sosia bears a heavy burden: as heavy as a pile of stolen Imperial ingots, in fact. Matters just get more complicated when Falco meets Helena Justina, a Senator's daughter who is connected to the very same traitors he has sworn to expose. Soon Falco finds himself swept from the perilous back alleys of Ancient Rome to the silver mines of distant Britain -- and up against a cabal of traitors with blood on their hands and no compunction whatsoever to do away with a snooping plebe like Falco...

From the Publisher:
Rome. AD 70. Private eye Marcus Didius Falco knows his way round the eternal city. He can handle the muggers, the police and most of the girls. But one fresh 16 year old, Sosia Camillina, finds him a case no Roman should be getting his nose into... Sosia's uncle is a Senator with suspicions. Some friends, Romans and countryment are doing a highly profitable, if highly illegal, trade in silver ingots or pigs. For Falco it's the start of a murderous trail that leads far beyond the seven hills. To a godforsaken land called Britain, to Emperor Vespasian himself, and to Helana Justina - a lady leagues out of Falco's class.
