A Song For Nero

History tells us that in 69 AD, Nero fled his palace in Rome, stabbed himself in the throat with a pen, and was trampled to death by horses in a muddy ditch. But here's another possibility: Nero did not die in that ditch, but somebody who looked very much like him did. This gives Nero the opportunity to start a new life in pursuit of his first love--music. But Nero is being pursued by two people who have reason to suspect he is still alive--one wants him dead, the other is a passionate fan of his dreadful music and wants his genius recognized.
