Enemies at Home
''Enemies at Home'' is a 2014 historical crime novel by British author Lindsey Davis. It is the second Flavia Albia novel, and begins in Rome in June AD 89. This sets it two months after the events of ''The Ides of April'', the first novel featuring Falco's adopted daughter in her work as a detective in ancient Rome.
The cover bears an image of two silver cups, one toppled, and a broken rope.
==Connections to the Falco series==
Falco is not mentioned in "The Cast", but his past history and his habits are discussed throughout conversations between Albia, her client the aedile Faustus, his slave Dromo and Albia's two uncles (revealed to be Falco's associates/brothers-in-law Quintus and Aulus, who now work as barristers and senators). Besides, the list includes his partner Helena Justina ("a force to be reckoned with"), her two brothers and their wives and ex-wives, and the "very old waiter" Apollonius. Lucius Petronius Longus, Falco's friend is revealed to have continued his search for Florius, only to have given up and retired from work with the vigiles, while Albia's maternal grandparents (Helena's parents) are absent, implying that they are deceased.
The fate of some of Albia's adopted relatives, the Camilii and the Didii, following the events of ''Nemesis'', and how Falco's family was affected by the Vesuvius eruption of 79 AD and the Saepta Julia fire of 80 AD, are also recalled by Albia. Albia also reveals that her late husband Lentullus met his untimely end in "an accident".
