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.
