Why not join Ros for a lively and friendly discussion of our latest book club title.

Set in the Roman Empire in AD 70, The Silver Pigs is the first story in Lindsey Davis's mystery series about Marcus Didius Falco, a deadbeat, low-life informer whose normal working day consists of spying on adulterous husbands for jealous wives. In a departure from his usual duties, Falco travels to Britain in search of stolen imperial silver ingots, catapulting himself into a dangerous game involving a dark political plot and, most hazardous of all, a senator's daughter connected to the traitors Falco has sworn to expose.

We will meet in the Castle Inn on Castle Hill at 7pm in the hour before IVC Pub night - feel free to stay on for drinks afterwards! The Castle is a quaint traditional pub offering a full range of drinks, including real ales and pub food.

Please bring along £1 (or £12 for the year) as a contribution to Meetup fees - this £1 is only payable by non-fully-paid members of IVC (and can be reclaimed if you decide to join the CambsIVC membership group).

Parking is free in the Shire Hall car park from 7pm.
Books to look forward to in the coming months:

  • Murder at the Fitzwilliam by Jim Eldridge
  • Death and Croissants by Ian Moore
  • A Morbid Taste for Bones by Ellis Peters
