It's about ancient Rome and murder, so perhaps the content warnings should be assumed, but the author sometimes shoehorns topics into places where I did not expect them, I wish I had been warned.danimacuk's review against another edition

This was a fascinating read that taught me as much about Ancient Rome as it did murder in it. The author writes in a dryly humorous style that engaged me well. The book covers murder in both the high and low social classes, which I appreciated as often history books focus on the high born.
