Last Act in Palmyra is the sixth in the Falco series by Lindsey Davis - and the first after she ran out of metals (silver, bronze, copper, iron and gold) to put in the titles. It's still a good book , and it has dropped to £0.99 at Kindle UK right now.

He's picking up extra fees from his old friend Thalia, the snake dancer, as he searches for Sophrona, her lost water organist. With the Chief Spy Anacrites paying his fare, Falco knows anything can go wrong.

A dangerous brush with the Brother, the sinister ruler of Nabataean Petra, sends Falco and his girlfriend Helena on a fast camel-ride to Syria. They join a traveling theatre group, which keeps losing members in non-accidental drownings.

The bad acting and poor audiences are almost as bad as the desert and its scorpions - then as the killer hovers, Falco tries to write a play...
