Author Name:

Author Description Ruth is the author of nine mysteries* featuring Roman Army medic Gaius Petreius Ruso and his British partner Tilla. The latest is a novella, PRIMA FACIE. She lives in Devon, England. A combination of nosiness and a childish fascination with mud means she is never happier than when wielding an archaeological trowel. <br /><br />She is sometimes called R.S. Downie, but she isn't the person with the same name who writes medical textbooks, and recommends that readers should <b> never, ever take health advice from a two thousand year old man who prescribes mouse droppings. </b><br /><br />*The first four books have all had two titles. Ruth is still wondering how this ever seemed like a good idea. Since she is unable to wind back time, British readers may find it useful to know that:<br /><br />Medicus was Ruso and the Disappearing Dancing Girls,<br />Terra Incognita was Ruso and the Demented Doctor,<br />Persona Non Grata was Ruso and the Root of All Evils,<br />Caveat Emptor was Ruso and the River of Darkness -<br />but SEMPER FIDELIS, TABULA RASA, VITA BREVIS, MEMENTO MORI and PRIMA FACIE only have one title each - hooray! <br /><br /><br />
