In the last years of the Roman Republic, a talented engineer is tapped to bring water to one of the city's most notorious slums. Nonius believes he is doing good for his city, but he isn't counting on the many obstacles that prevent anything from getting done in those turbulent times. His troubles multiply when he falls in love with beautiful, haunted Amaris, concubine of a senator who is determined to stop Nonius' aqueduct from going through. The clash between them runs from the bedrooms to the streets to the courtrooms of the Eternal City, in one of the most fateful periods in her history.

I thought the story about putting in the feeder pipes interesting, as well as the descriptions of Rome, but I really disliked the pages and pages of very graphic descriptions of sex and the gruesomeness of the one character's gelding. I did like the last few pages, with the ending. Recommended with reservations. ( )
