    The Villa Nero Built

    I received a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
    As a fan of historical fiction the description of this story drew me in. But what elevated the story for me was the partial excavation of a Roman Villa, explained in the credits, and a signet ring, found in 1995, upon which the story is derived. The narration was good, and the banishment of the young girl and her child by the debauched Emperor severely impacts her life.
