A country-house mystery involving obnoxious nationalist students, set in an ancient-Greece-like world, with a love story between a weary ex-soldier and a brilliant and beautiful eunuch: uh, what's not to like? This is my second A.J. Demas book, and I have loved them both. They've managed to feel utterly cozy and pleasant (and steamy!) even in the midst of subjects like war and political sabotage. Ordered this book's sequel right after finishing this. Looking forward to it!
