David Downie shares insights about the great Italian capital city, used as the setting for his new mystery/thriller Roman Roulette.

He tells us why he chose Rome as the setting of his newest book, and talks with Lea about not-to-miss sites and insider suggestions of what to do and see. We talk of food specialties, and top destinations just outside of Rome, including Ostia, and Tivoli.
David ends the episode with a special memory of Rome that brings together past and present.
