We are delighted to announce that we have signed an exciting new series of Roman mysteries by Jacquie Rogers.
In Jacquie’s words:
“The Quintus Valerius series is a companion to my Otto Cornelius series. Set in third-century Roman Britain and across the Roman empire, these mystery-thrillers are centred around ex-Praetorian Imperial Investigator Quintus Valerius; his British associate, Tiro; and Lady Julia Aureliana, a healer and noble of the Durotriges tribe of southwest Britain.
“A survivor of Emperor Septimius Severus’s massive invasions of Caledonia, Quintus takes on a comprehensive role for the new British governor. He returns to Britannia in the first book in the series to investigate counterfeiting and rebellion in Somerset, where his own painful past is revealed. Successive novels plunge the trio into political assassination in Rome; a Pictish uprising north of Hadrian’s Wall; sacrilegious murders in Bath; and treachery at the court of the Irish High King.
“It’s such a thrill to extend my association with Sapere Books. Thank you, Amy and colleagues!”
