Medicus concluded

Amazingly, I was right.  Tilla did come back to our Medicus.  They are sorta married at the end--our Medicus was a good boy throughout the book, never once falling to the temptation of the many slave girls about him.  Tilla's arm is in good shape, and they are ready to become a good English couple.

Ruth Downie's ending was masterfully handled--really well plotted and executed. The book, however, provides nothing regarding early Britain/Roman era, so not for me.  A big part of the reason I chose to read the book turned out to be non-existent.
