Meet a few of the main characters
Livia (the sleuth) | An intelligent, free-spirited young lady who’s always up for a good challenge—like solving a crime. |
Roxana (the sidekick) | A spirited maidservant from the wrong part of town with a snarky attitude highly inappropriate for a proper lady’s maid. Exactly what Livia needs in a maid. |
Avitus (sometime ally) | An aloof, and annoyingly analytical aristocrat with a good heart and more courage than most people realize. Could he and Livia learn to become a team? |
Placida (the mentor) | A simple baker’s wife whose gentle wisdom always puts a finger on Livia’s attitude problems. |
Auntie Livilla (the role model) | Livia’s widowed aunt. An independent, eccentric lady who encourages Livia to try her hand at solving crimes (within the bounds of propriety, of course). |
Curio (an ally) | Livia’s rascally brother, who is trying to build a reformed reputation as a respectable landlord. He has useful friends in low places. |
Nemesis (the cat) | A feline troublemaker who stalks the pages of the Livia Aemilia Mysteries to steal food and otherwise cause mischief. |
