The Corpus Conundrum: A Third Case from the Notebooks of Pliny

The Corpus Conundrum: A Third Case from the Notebooks of Pliny the Younger

While out hunting, Pliny finds a manâ€™s body. He appears lifeless, but Pliny cannot find a cause of death. He locks the body in a stable, but in the morning the body is gone. Strangers appear at Plinyâ€™s door, claiming to be the manâ€™s children. One sings siren songs and claims his â€œfatherâ€ is immortal. Another may be an empusa, a shape-shifting, blood-drinking monster. Bodies pile up: a fifteen year old murder, a faceless man floating in the bay, and the â€œlifeless immortal,â€ this time with his throat cut. Was he killed for his blood? Pliny and Tacitus must discover how the murders are connected to each other and to Plinyâ€™s nemesis Marcus Aquilius Regulus.
