Medicus

Join us to discuss the October book club selection, Medicus by Ruth Downie.

Military doctor Gaius Petrius Ruso just wants to start over after his divorce and his father’s death. A posting with the 20th legion in the remote province of Britannia seems like just the thing—until his rescue of the slave girl Tilla and a series of murders that no one wants to investigate complicates matters.

Book club will begin with a presentation on Greco-Roman medicine before delving into this historical murder mystery. 

Free and open to all, pre-registration required.
