CONSPIRATA by Robert Harris
Spanning five years, Harris’ second crisis-driven installment in the life of Cicero (after IMPERIUM — both can be read on their own) begins in 63 BC as Cicero is elected consul of Rome and finds himself caught between two factions scheming for power, the patricians and the populists. Tiro, his slave and loyal secretary, continues to chronicle his master’s exploits as powerful forces range against him, including the wily and ruthless Gaius Julius Caesar.
