Settle in with The Iron Hand of Mars (Marcus Didius Falco) from Lindsey Davis. This unabridged audiobook sits comfortably in Mystery and plays straight in your browser.

On a journey that only a stoic could survive, Falco meets with disarray, torture, and murder. His one hope: In the northern forest lives a forceful Druid priestess who perhaps can be persuaded to cease her anti-Rome activities and work for peace—which Falco is eagerly hoping for as, back in Rome, Titus Caesar is busy trying to make time with Helena Justina, a senator’s daughter and Falco’s girlfriend. Lindsey Davis’ historical mystery The Iron Hand of Mars is a “seamless blending of humor, history, and adventure” ( Publishers Weekly ). When Germanic troops in the service of the empire begin to rebel and a Roman general disappears, Emperor Vespasian turns to the one man he can trust: Marcus Didius Falco, a private informer whose rates are low enough that even the stingy Vespasian is willing to pay them. To Falco, an undercover tour of Germany is an assignment from Hades.
