    Black Quill Press is pleased to announce the promotion of Joan O'Hagan’s historical thriller, A Roman Death.

    Skullduggery and scheming in Ancient Rome on the eve of Caesar's assassination.

    Historical thriller set in Ancient Rome. In 45 BC, Julius Caesar is at the height of his power. Lucius Scaurus, the young, good-looking fiancé of a high-society girl is poisoned at the couple's own pre-wedding banquet. In the trial that follows, Roman society is shocked when the girl's mother, Helvia, is accused of not only of murder, but of incest. Cicero comes to Helvia's defence, but the killer's identity remains a mystery until the final twist – or two.

    Praise for A Roman Death:
    ‘Poison, poetry (both high-minded and salacious), marriage for money, marriage for love, gang-rape, cowardice in battle, scheming slaves, conniving aristocrats, malicious matrons casting magical curses, and (as if all this were not enough) a previously unknown oration by Cicero - there's so much going on, so expertly conveyed ...’ — Steven Saylor

    ‘An absorbing story, with fully drawn characters, a fascinating place and period, all given vibrant life in the author’s best work so far.’ — Kirkus Review

    ‘An original setting, carefully researched and vividly portrayed.’ — The Times Literary Supplement

    A Roman Death is available for purchase in print and ebook.
