Medicus by Ruth Downie
A Gaius Petreius Ruso Mystery (1st in series)
This book was originally published in the UK in 2007 as Ruso and the Dancing Girls and later as Medicus and the Dancing Girls. There are currently four books in the series. (Note: The B&N website is currently showing the wrong image for the book, displaying the cover of Caveat Emptor instead.)
About Medicus (from the publisher): Divorced and down on his luck, Gaius Petreius Ruso has made the rash decision to seek his fortune in an inclement outpost of the Roman Empire, namely Britannia. In a moment of weakness, after a straight thirty-six-hour shift at the army hospital, he succumbs to compassion and rescues an injured slave girl, Tilla, from the hands of her abusive owner. Now he has a new problem: a slave who won't talk and cant cook, and drags trouble in her wake. Before he knows it, Ruso is caught in the middle of an investigation into the deaths of prostitutes working out of the local bar. Now Ruso must summon all his forensic knowledge to find a killer … who may be after him next.
