Summary
When an unwelcome visitor arrives at Hild's monastery, Fridgyth the herb-wife is forced to hold her tongue. The widow of the fierce Mercian king, who once brought death and destruction to the coastal community, is an uneasy sight for many. Although everyone is thankful for Northumbria's fragile peace, painful memories are still fresh, and some can think of nothing but revenge.
A young tanner is found dead after a mysterious liaison - his brother is nowhere to be seen, and the boy who used to help him is terrified to speak. While the abbess is busy trying to secure an ongoing peace for the kingdom, Fridgyth starts her own investigation, though she has no idea what she is dealing with or the danger she is in....

Cosy Medieval Mystery
Another twisting plot involving Frygid, Hylde and Kettle. Our Herb Wife is again caught up in momentous times and has to see her way through. Great characters, interesting plot and all woven through with tremendous research. My one complaint was perhaps the happy ever after ending but hey, it’s cosy crime, what did I expect?
