On a typical day, it's small cases cheating spouses, employees dipping into the till but this isn't a typical day. Her beloved, the plebeian Manlius Faustus, has recently moved in and decided that they should get married in a big, showy ceremony as part of beginning a proper domestic life together. Also, his contracting firm has been renovating a rundown dive bar called The Garden of the Hesperides, only to uncover human remains buried in the backyard. There have been rumors for years that the previous owner of the bar, now deceased, killed a bar maid and these are presumably her remains. In the choice between planning a wedding and looking into a crime from long ago, Albia would much rather investigate a possible murder. Or murders, as more and more remains are uncovered, revealing that something truly horrible has been going on at the Hesperides.As she gets closer to the truth behind the bodies in the backyard, Albia's investigation has put her in the cross-hairs which might be the only way she'll get out of the wedding and away from all her relatives who are desperate to 'help.'"-- $c Provided by publisher. 521 1 $a Adult. $b Brodart. 650 0 $a Women private investigators $z Rome $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Rome $v Fiction. 800 1 $a Davis, Lindsey. $t Flavia Albia mystery. 941 $a 18 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20240702022419.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201020150.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210731010108.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722053130.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20200204083459.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20200110065402.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107034115.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006100136.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720045037.0 952 $l DAPG173 $d 20170815011805.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418115106.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20161018013519.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160909012458.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20160908010842.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20160830011023.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20160824011300.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20160824010255.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20160810012207.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7C24CB684F0811E69BB81376DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
