Dectives in Togas is a very boring book. It has very little action and even when there was action it was not very intense. People who like none violent mysteries would like this book. This book takes place in ancient Rome. Most of the action takes place at night in the soothsayers house.Rufus is convicted of a crime and sent to jail. His friends try to find some evidence that he is innocent. Their main suspect is a soothsayer. Then they find the real culprit and set Rufus free.I would not recommend this book people would be better of reading Eragon or Deltora Quest witch I read and loved but this book was rather dull.
