 Crowner John is Tested to the Limit February 22, 2005
J. Chippindale (Yorkshire, England)
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Christ Mass, 1194 and Sir John de Wolfe (newly appointed coroner for the county of Devon) is attending a party at his own home, the guests include some of the most notable dignitaries of the city of Exeter, including his brotherin-law Sir Richard, Sheriff of the county.His wife Matilda, a usually surly and miserable woman is in good spirits, because she sees the party as an opportunity to raise her social standing something she is always striving to attain. Sir John, much to her disgust is called away to examine the body of a canon who has been found hanged in his own privy. Is it suicide, or is there something more sinister afoot . . . I always enjoy Bernard Knight's novels. There are many good writers about but very few have Prof. Knight's gift of storytelling and the obvious knowledge he has about the period in which he writes.
 Well done! December 15, 2000

Excellent and historically (as near as possible) accurate. If you enjoy Ellis Peter's Cadfael series, you will enjoy this one and all of this author's works.
