Description: Floridius the Soothsayer has been asked to read the omens for a wealthy man whose villa appears to be haunted.

Join Threptus and Floridius on their hilarious and action-packed adventures among Rome's superstitious underclass, and don't miss this ruder, funnier and still historically accurate companion to The Roman Mysteries.
