Semper Fidelis
by Ruth Downie
Another good mystery from Ruth Downie. The setting and characterisation is particularly appealing with this series and Semper Fidelis is a good addition to the story of Ruso and Tilla, although I think I enjoyed some of the earlier titles a little more than this one. The plot was engaging, but perhaps it took me a while to feel fully engaged with it. Ruso and Tilla are great characters and while the dynamic has changed a little, they are still an appealing and compelling mystery solving duo. The clash of cultures as represented by Ruso, the conquering roman and Tilla the defiant local is part of the appeal of the series. The setting of Roman occupied Britain is excellent, vividly bought to life. Long may this series continue. I am looking forward to the next novel in the series.
