Three Hands In The Fountain by Lindsey Davis

Three Hands In The Fountain by Lindsey Davis

Nothing unusual in that Falco and his laddish friend Petronius find their local fountain has been blocked by a gruesomely severed human hand. They know the sadistic killerlurks somewhere on the festive streets of Rome preparing to strike again.

Historical novelist Lindsey Davis is best known for her novels set in Ancient Rome, including the much-loved Marcus Didius Falco series, although she has also written about the English Civil War, including in 2014 A Cruel Fate, a book for the Quick Reads literacy initiative. Her examination of the paranoid reign of the roman emperor Domitian began with Master and God, a standalone novel, leading to her new series about Flavia Albia, set in that dark period. Her books are translated and have been dramatized on BBC Radio 4. Her many awards include the Premio Colosseo (from the city of Rome) and the Crime Writers' Cartier Diamond Dagger for lifetime achievement. Most recently she was awarded the City of Ubeda Historical Novel Prize, also for lifetime achievement.
