Book Club - The Silver Pigs

Reschedule to Tuesday Oct 27.

Book Club will be in person at the Des Peres Bread Co at 5:30pm

This month's selection is The Silver Pigs by Lindsey Davis. It's OK to attend if you didn't finish the book but spoilers including the ending will be discussed.

A (Robot's) summary:

Meet Marcus Didius Falco, a cynical, sharp-witted "private informer" walking the gritty streets of AD 70 Rome. His life is upended when he rescues a young woman harboring a dangerous secret: a stolen imperial silver ingot—known as a "pig"—smuggled from the edge of the empire.
When a sudden tragedy strikes, Falco is hired to investigate. To uncover the truth, he must travel from the heart of Rome to the dangerous, bleak wilds of Britain. Working undercover, Falco quickly finds himself out of his depth, entangled in a massive web of corruption and high-stakes political intrigue. Joined by Helena Justina, a senator's sharp-tongued daughter who is entirely his match, Falco must expose the conspirators before he becomes their next victim.
