The first order of business, however, regards the corpse that was found in a chest sent as part of a large lot to be sold by the Falco family auction house. As the senior family representative in Rome, Albia must identify the corpse, find out why he was killed, who killed him, and most importantly, how he ended up in the chest. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt the same time, a potential young man Faustus comes looking for help with his friend Sextus.
