I’ve really enjoyed Ruth Downie’s too-short 8-book historical mystery series. It’s set mostly in Roman Britain, and features army doctor Gaius Petreius Ruso and his wife Tilla (who enters his life as a really sick – but also amazingly rude – slave girl, whom he somehow manages to keep alive). In fact, I enjoy Tilla’s character more than Ruso’s, when I think about it… In any case, the fourth book in the series, Caveat Emptor, is on sale at Kindle UK right now (May 6, 2021) for $1.99.
