Description

BBC Radio 2004 - Falco - The Silver Pigs - A Detective Story set in Ancient Rome - podded by cheops --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anton Lesser stars as Falco with Fritha Goodey as Helena Justina in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of Lindsey Davis's first Falco novel. Four episodes of approx 30 minutes each in high quality MP3. One fine day in AD 70, scruffy, working-class informer Marcus Didius Falco literally runs into a beautiful sixteen-year-old girl on the steps of the Forum. Sosia Camillina is on the run from a couple of street toughs, and after rescuing her, Falco wants to find out why. It soon becomes clear that Sosia knows a dangerous secret about a stockpile of silver ingots - or 'pigs' - and there are those who will stop at nothing to prevent her telling what she knows. Hoping for future favours from Sosia's rich, influential uncle, Falco embarks on an intricate case of smuggling, murder and treason that reaches as far as the Emperor's palace, and beyond the seven hills of Rome. Soon, Falco finds himself in an inhospitable outpost of the Empire called Britain, where the weather is filthy, the natives restless and the women angry. There, he meets Helena Justina, a spirited aristocrat who becomes an important part of his life. But, if he does not tread carefully, the treacherous puzzle of the silver pigs could be the death of him... Episode 1: ---------- Our hero chances upon an illegal trade in precious metal, the silver pigs of the title, after rescuing a senator's daughter from a kidnap gang. Episode 2: ---------- Things have taken a turn for the worse and he now finds himself investigating a murder, and, worse still, is forced to visit a remote and dangerous outpost of the Empire - Britain. Episode 3: ---------- Investigating the illegal import of the silver pigs or ingots, the Roman Detective Falco has chanced upon a plot to overthrow the Emperor Vespasian. Episode 4: ---------- In the final episode of our Roman detective adventure, Falco discovers the identity of Sosia's murderer, unmasks the identity of the plotters against the Emperor and finds that true love can cross the boundaries of the strict Roman class structure.
