April, 1145. Thorgar the Ploughman is found by the bloodied body of Father Edmund, a village priest in Ripple, and is summarily hanged for being caught in the act, despite his insistence that he is innocent. His sister goes to Worcester to seek justice for her brother, and the lord Sheriff sends Hugh Bradecote, with Serjeant Catchpoll and Underserjeant Walkelin to discover the truth. They soon find that the ploughman was indeed blameless, but uncover strong motives for the killing and some unpleasant secrets in Ripple. Was it the priest's own wrongdoing that led to his death, or a whisper of treasure long lost and now re-discovered? Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Hawkswood has written a series of very entertaining Medieval crime mysteries and this is the latest of them. It is relatively short and not too demanding but gives a great sense of the era around the war of succession between King Stephen and Empress Matilda. The visioning of a small village and the petty troubles and jealousies therein are well imagined. ( )
