display_description
A prequel to the best-selling Roma Sub Rosa series traces 18-year-old Gordianus's journey to the Seven Wonders of the World, each of which pose a mystery that challenges his budding powers of deduction and the tenacity of celebrated poet Antipater of Sidon, who fakes his death to accompany young Gordianus. The year is 92 B.C. Traveling the world for the first time, Gordianus discovers that amorous exploration goes hand-in-hand with crime-solving. The mysteries of love are the true wonders of the world, and at the end of the journey, an Eighth Wonder awaits him in Alexandria. Eighteen-year-old Gordianus embarks on a quest in politically restless 92 B.C. to see the world's Seven Wonders accompanied by a celebrated poet who fakes his own death to travel under an assumed identity.
