Venus in Pearls (SPQR 13.10)
John Maddox Roberts
Rome 46BC: Although
somewhat tired of being Gaius Julius Caesar's dogsbody, Decius agrees
to find his pearly breastplate in advance of the Triumph. Caesar's
grand-niece Julia also appears. The titular Venus statue does not appear
to be historical. (Originally published as a short story in 'Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine' (July/August 2001)
