The Ides of April by Lindsey Davis

3.0

A pleasant read, but Flavia Albia somehow makes a less convincing narrator than her father did. Rome is depicted in a lively and realistic way, but Albia herself doesn't quite come alive; her sudden passion for a man she's just met is told to the reader rather than shown and frankly just never makes sense, and later the revelation of the mystery doesn't really seem like a revelation - it's all too clear who is responsible and what other secrets are lurking.
