A simply brilliant murder mystery!April 16, 2006 jenaveve(leeds, england) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book has obviously been well researched and yet does not bore you with fact. Also the main characters are portrayed so the reader can really empathise with them wich makes the book even more enjoyable. There are serious parts but an underline of humour breaks them up brilliantly, i love the dog! I strongly recommend this book, anyone who likes history novels and/or mysteries will love this, although you may wish to read the previous books in this series first.
An Enjoyable ReadNovember 13, 2004 J. Chippindale(England) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Michael Jeck's books about the West Country of England in medieval times are all well written and researched and his main characters Sir Baldwin Furnshill one time Knight Templar and latterly Keeper of the King's Peace and his friend and associate Bailiff Simon Puttock are now familiar names to the many readers of Jecks books. The plot of this book is built around a Leper Hospital and there is soon murder and mayhem for Sir Baldwin and Simon to deal with. The plots of these books run along at a fast pace and for those interested in the period of the 14th century in England are a joy to read.
