Biografía breve
M. E. MAYER is the husband-and-wife team Mary Reed and Eric Mayer. Mary was born in Newcastle-on-Tyne. She worked as a secretary before running the Theology Faculty office at Oxford University. She subsequently emigrated to America, and it was while living in Illinois that she sold her first short story. Six years later she co-wrote the first Death in Byzantium story with her husband. Eric grew up in Pennsylvania and, after going to law school, began work as a technical writer on legal publications by day, while by night he ran a science-fiction fanzine. He also writes comic books, and creates computer games.

A good mystery set in the time of Justinian at Constantinople (~550 A.D.). I liked the setting and the main character John, Lord Chamberlain for Justinian.

I was disappointed in this - I was quite looking forward to it because of the historical setting charged with religious complexity. But, although the background bits were great, I never cared that much for any of the characters. And I didn't like the ending.

I might try the next one from the library, in hopes that the characters will develop in more interesting ways. But I don't have high hopes.
