The Body in the Bathouse was written by Lindsey Davies.
I've been to the palace a few times and loved it. I suggest you google it and find the official site and the links.
I liked the gardens enormously as they have been recreated as close to the original garden; hedges are exactly where hedges were as they have the trenches dug in the chalk to show the patterns. The plants are pretty close to the originals though some of the varieties are out since the types from Roman times are extinct or unavailable.

There is a historical novel set at Fishbourne Palace, called something like The Body in the Bathouse, by a female British writer, part of a series of Roman-era mysteries she wrote. I wasn't too impressed with it, which is why I cannot recall either her name or the the precise title of the book. Nevertheless, if you can somehow track it from my meagre information, it does a decent job of conveying the details you are interested in

image or look things up sometimes when they do not seem to be clear. without the relevant information it would not be a good idea to accept advice
