The daughter of the biblical Lazarus is sold into slavery by her stepfather. Although she feels she is well-treated in the first household she enters, she is not so fortunate when she is sold on.

Something of a surprise. Although it was the author's first historical novel and was meant to be a standalone, it serves as a prequel to the author's detective stories featuring Pliny and Tacitus, but is a lot grimmer in tone.

Lorcus' talent is her flute playing. Good evocation of the era of Domitian and simply written. It was also well paced.
