After a slight delay due to a small printing error, our new stock of Carolyn O'Brien's incredible Rose & Renzo is landing this week. Apologies for any delays or waits on orders. We hadn't planned for the initial print run to go so quickly! We suppose it's a nice problem to have!

I love this series! A sort of bloody murder mystery/police procedural set in Roman Britain with a detective who doesn't agree with a lot of the beliefs and customs of the time. Really fun and twisty stories with an immersive setting 😍
