"""""Memorable characters, steadily absorbing period background...a commendable achievement.""" It is 1323 and for travellers Sir Baldwin Furnshill and Bailiff Simon Puttock, nearly journey's end, until they happen upon a tiny Cornish village where a terrible act has taken place. In a peasant's hovel, a widow hangs from a noose, her children murdered at her feet. The companions soon find themselves mired down in the squalid politics and petty betrayals of the close knit community; there are secrets lurking in the green hills of Cornwall and someone is desperate to keep them hidden. With news from London that an escaped traitor is on the loose, it seems the threat of civil war must override common justice, even though the bodies are mounting in the little church...with his usual attention to historical detail, Michael Jacks continues this brilliant series of Mediaeval mysteries, redolent with the atmosphere and intrigue of the time.
