As Roman authorities turn a strangely blind eye, Hortensia, the daughter of the capitals most celebrated orator, begins investigating this trail of murders that leads straight into the dark heart of Rome. Despite her husbands and fathers attempts to protect her, rebelling against the societal constraints to her sex, Hortensia plunges deeper into the corrupt underworld of the city. And only one man can save her from becoming the next victim: Lucrio, the ex-gladiator to whom she already owes her life. But Lucrio has secrets as well, and his past threatens to subsume both him and Hortensia. Rivals of the Republic is the exciting fiction debut from Roman historian and author Annelise Freisenbruch. Using her supreme knowledge of the period, Freisenbruch delivers a meticulously accurate and suspenseful mystery that will grip readers from beginning to end.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51929502286112,"sku":"NEW1468312790","price":18.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/rivals-of-the-republic-the-blood-of-rome-book-1-1468312790","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
