So when Eugenius asks Claudia to chaperone his granddaughter home to Sicily she jumps at the chance to make money. It should be easy. Sabina, she is told, has recently completed thirty years' service as a Vestal Virgin. Or has she?Claudia quickly suspects she's escorting an impostor. Then a woman's brutalized body is discovered. And the lies just get thicker and thicker...
