Product Details


Product Description

Product Description

It is 1323, and Baldwin Furnshill and Bailiff Simon Puttock have been granted leave to go on pilgrimage, each seeking solace after the recent traumatic events in Gidleigh. Together, they travel across Europe to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, but danger is never far away. Foreign travel is perilous—outlaws and robbers threaten at all times, not to mention the risks of political unrest and a recent spate of attacks on pilgrims. But it seems an even greater menace hangs over the city of Santiago. A beautiful young girl is found raped and murdered on the hillside, her broken body leaving no doubt that she is the victim of the most brutal of killers. Among the first to arrive at the scene, Baldwin and Simon lend their investigative skills to the ensuing inquiry headed by the local pesquisidore. With so many keen minds on the case, it can only be a matter of time until the culprit is found. But they are reckoning with the unexpected appearance of a face from Baldwin’s past—a face that looks set to threaten not only the investigation, but Baldwin’s very future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast-paced and highly recommended, Sep 11 2003
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Watch for this engrossing historical novel/mystery in November: it comes steeped in the atmosphere and flavor of the Middle Ages and tells of a former knight Templar Sir Furnshill and Puttock, his sleuth sidekick. With a tone of Holmes set in medieval times, the two investigate a Spanish murder during a pilgrimage while facing a threat from the past. Fast-paced and highly recommended.
