Alexandria is the nineteenth book in Lindsey Davis' bestselling Falco series.The new Falco novel finds Lindsey Daviss First Century detective Marcus Didius Falco and his partner Helena Justina investigating crime in the famous city of Alexandria.For Marcus Didius Falco, agent to the Emperor Vespasian, Alexandria holds fascination and a hint of fear. Beautiful, historic and famously unruly, the great cosmopolitan city wears Roman rule lightly. While his wife, Helena Justina, wants to see the Lighthouse and the Pyramids, Falco has a mission at the Great Library that soon turns out to involve much more than stocktaking its innumerable scrolls.A mysterious death in the library brings him into conflict with the darker side of academic life. With forensic science in its infancy, even an illegal autopsy fails to find real answers. To solve the crime for the Roman Prefect if indeed it is a crime Falco will have to draw on his own doggedness and intuition, at first supported only by Helenas commonsense and the loyal backup of her brother Aulus, who goes undercover as a student among the infighting academics. The philosophers hunger after fame and fortune so ruthlessly there is soon another terrifying death, this time at the royal zoo.It so happens that his Uncle Fulvius is living in Alexandria with his partner Cassius. Their involvement in local affairs already seems shady when they are joined by their crony, Falcos father, Geminus, a man wellknown for disreputable business practices. If the irrepressible Pa has had a hand in events at the library, Falco knows he stands no chance.
