Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"Kirkus" called T"he Thieves of Ostia" "a fast-paced, crackling good mystery." In this second book in "The Roman Mysteries" series, Flavia and her friends depart Ostia for a summer in Pompeii and are quickly caught up in a mysterious riddle and a hunt for great treasure--while above the town, Mount Vesuvius rumbles, ready to erupt.
Ten-year-old Flavia and her friends encounter the Roman admiral Pliny before making a journey to her uncle's farm near Mt. Vesuvius, where they try to solve a riddle, reunite a family, and get out of the path of a natural disaster.
