The eleventh book in the Roman Mysteries series is "The Sirens of Surrentum". Flavia, Jonathan, Nubia and Lupus are invited to Villa Limona by Pulchra, who is preoccupied because someone is trying to poison her mother. When they get there, they find out that Pulchra has invited the boy that Flavia will be betrothed to, and also three young men and three young women, to try to discover if they were the ones who tried to poison Pulchra's mother. After many adventures, the kids discover that Pulchra's mother was trying to commit suicide because her husband, Pollus Felix, was unfaithful, but she had built up a resistance to the poison. Pulchra's mother had taken poison when those people were in the house because her husband had been flirting with the women and the men had reminded her of her previous husband, which had died many years before.
