Excerpt from The Villa Claudia Upon Tivoli, the Tibur of the ancients, upon Its cliffs, its water-falls, its cypresses and its ruined temples lay the mellow haze of an October sunset. Various poets, through the ages, have sung the beauties of the scene. Painters have striven to record its charm; - the charm of a wild but flowery hill where human hands, for nearly thirty centuries, have built, destroyed, embellished; where Nature softens their mistakes and gives the crowning glory to their triumphs.

A Rhodian amphora filled with wine by Horace and inscribed with lines written by the poet has the star role in john Ames Mitchell's "The Villa Claudia." Imagine Falernian 1,900 years old, and having gained mellowness and bouquet and strength with each year. If your imagination is equal to the feat, the rest of the story will be plausible enough. An Italian setting, an American hero and heroine--the latter living in a Tivoli villa with a mother who has married an Italian and is widowed, an Italian combination fianc� and villain, a room from which men come out old, senile, debauched or do not come at all, according as they drink little or much, of a wine calculated to give 1,900 years of jag in one short evening--there is matter for eventful chapters. To relieve the mind of prospective readers who may have doubts concerning the plump hero's relation to the old Falernian, it may be noted that the story ends happily with the amphora empty and the two young Americans safely wedded in Connecticut where Morris Lane holds an interest in a cotton mill. --The Book Buyer, Volume 29

Is this villa in Greece a disastrous fixer-upper... or a dream come true for Claudia? After receiving a life-changing inheritance from a beloved, quirky older relative, thirty-two-year-old Claudia has done something wild they would approve of - she's bought a run-down villa in Greece! Though she's never seen it in person, she's sure that with a lick of paint, it will be everything she's ever dreamed of... But, arriving at her new home on the gorgeous Greek island of Corfu, Claudia is met with a shock. The cracks look more like chasms, plants are growing through the tiled floor, and the view of the sparkling blue sea would be perfect - if there was a window instead of a hole in the wall. With the local villagers thinking she's mad to take on the villa, Claudia panics she's made the biggest mistake of her life. Until local builder Dimitri comes to her rescue... Between his caring nature, his rippling muscles and deep brown eyes, Claudia can't believe she's found her knight in shining armour. And they grow close over glasses of Greek wine beneath the stars, after long, hot days working on the villa. But just when Claudia begins to see a future with Dimitri, his ex-girlfriend throws a spanner in the works. Though he reassures her that it's over between them, Claudia starts to feel like he's keeping secrets. Then a pipe bursts, flooding the villa, and all Claudia's hopes are dashed at once... Should Claudia call it quits and head back to her old life? Or is Dimitri hiding the perfect surprise, one that could help Claudia finally build her dream life in Greece? Fans of Sarah Morgan, Jenny Colgan and My Mamma Mia Summer will love this gorgeous holiday read, which will sweep you away to the stunning beaches of Greece.

The slightest mistake could cost her life... In the summer of 314AD, dark figures lurking in the twilight of Roman society are on the prowl, and Rome is shocked by a series of gruesome murders in Paul Doherty's third novel featuring imperial secret agent Claudia. Perfect for fans of Lindsey Davis and Steven Saylor. 'The master of historical whodunit' - Booklist Rome: August 314AD, and as the sun's insidious heat beats down, murderous forces lurk in the underbelly of the city. The normally cosseted world of Rome's rich and powerful is rocked by a series of violent abductions, as children of the elite are kidnapped and held for ransom. Meanwhile, veteran soldiers, men who served Constantine along the Great Wall in northern Britain are being barbarously murdered; the indignities inflicted on their corpses reminiscent of the gruesome practices of the Picts whom they fought so many years ago. The Empress Helena summons her secret agent, Claudia, in a bid to resolve these macabre occurrences. But Claudia has problems of her own. The perfectly preserved corpse of a young Christian woman has been disinterred in her uncle's garden and it falls to her to investigate this mystery too. Now she must track her way through a murky tangle of politics, religion and murderous violence, ever aware that the slightest mistake could cost her life. What readers are saying about Paul Doherty: 'A good example of historical fact and fiction mixed together, the past comes to life in front of your eyes' 'Paul Doherty's books are a joy to read' 'The sounds and smells of the period seem to waft from the pages of [Paul Doherty's] books'
