520    In The Throne of Caesar, award-winning mystery author 
       Steven Saylor turns to the most famous murder in history: 
       It’s Rome, 44 AD, and the Ides of March are approaching.  
       Julius Caesar has been appointed dictator for life by the 
       Roman Senate. Having pardoned his remaining enemies and 
       rewarded his friends, Caesar is now preparing to leave 
       Rome with his army to fight the Parthian Empire.  
       Gordianus the Finder, after decades of investigating 
       crimes and murders involving the powerful, has set aside 
       enough that he’s been raised to the Equestrian rank and 
       has firmly and finally retired. On the morning of March 
       10th, though, he’s first summoned to meet with Cicero and 
       then with Caesar himself. Both have the same request of 
       Gordianus―keep your ear to the ground, ask around, and 
       find out if there are any conspiracies against Caesar’s 
       life. Caesar, however, has one other important matter to 
       discuss. Gordianus’s adopted son Meto has long been one of
       Caesar’s closest confidants. To honor Meto, Caesar is 
       going to make his father Gordianus a Senator when he 
       attends the next session on the 15th of March.  With only 
       four days left before he’s made a Senator, Gordianus must 
       dust off his old skills and see what conspiracy against 
       Julius Caesar, if any, he can uncover. Because the Ides of
       March are approaching...
