Sequel to Silver Pigs. I enjoyed it just as much. There is much character development in this one, and introduction of new but lovable characters. The romantic relationship seems a bit contrived -- both lovers misunderstanding each other all through the book. I wouldn't change a word of it, however. One thing I would change: Lindsey Davis uses too many exclamation marks. (I was going to insert an exclamation at the end of this sentence, but decided that would be like calling the kettle black). For my defense, I am a history teacher, and correct essays for a living. I have an unreasonable aversion to exclamation, especially as I tend to use them too much myself!!! It's contagious!!!
This is a terrific book. I highly recommend it.
