The Iron Hand of Mars - first UK edition

by Lindsey Davis - signed

Fourth book in the Marcus Didius "Falco" series. In this episode, Falco is sent to the hostile border area between Belgica and Germania Libera, to what is modern day Mainz, Germany, as a spy for Titus, during the months of September to November A.D.71.  In this dangerous, hot-spot province, Imperial Agent Falco searches for an absconding legion commander whose loyalty is deeply suspect.  Unexpected events lead to a trip into the barbarian lands east of the Rhenus.

Fine book in fine jacket.
