Joining the hunt for whoever brought down the king of beasts, Falco is also in the ballpark, so to speak, when someone slays the city's most glamorous gladiator. Determined to solve this high-profile crime, Falco enters the dark, desperate world of those who must kill or be killed for a living. But all roads, including a domestic crisis with his lover Helena, soon lead to Africa, where Rome's lions are procured...and where the most dangerous beast of all waits to prey on his fellow man.

Not much of a salary, of course, but the title does give him a better standing with his in-laws. Now, all Falco wants is to spend time relaxing at home with his family. But there is no rest for Falco as he finds himself drawn into the world of the Roman religious cults...and the murder of a member of the Sacred Brotherhoods. And then there's the disappearance of the most likely new candidate for the Order of Vestal Virgins. Falco soon uncovers a sinister cover-up-and is too deeply involved to back away from the truth..."

Now Davis returns to A.D. 74 with a riveting investigation into a missing child... ONE VIRGIN TOO MANY ........................................Men are fools for love.

But Falco is soon restless and when a beautiful child, chosen to enter the secret order of Vestal Virgins, disappears, he grabs the case. He quickly discovers that greed and religious fervor are only a thread away from madness.
