A death foretold. A truth footnoted. A bureaucracy panicking.
Decimus Flaccus was just a scribe. Quiet, diligent, and very nearly forgettable-until he accidentally overheard a conspiracy to kill Julius Caesar.
Now he's juggling misplaced prophecies, bribable omens, one extremely combustible laundress, and Rome's worst-kept secret. His job? File a report. His plan? Stay unnoticed. His mistake? Telling the truth.
As Rome prepares for chaos with a festival of decrees, cults, and dangerously delayed paperwork, Decimus must navigate corruption, collapsing infrastructure, and a poet with no discernible skills.
Because history's about to happen.
And someone has to write the version that gets remembered.
Smart, satirical, and completely historically irresponsible, Et Tu, Brute? skewers the myths of Rome with bureaucracy, banter, and one very ill-advised eyewitness account.
