Summary

Salisbury, 1231
A violent encounter at a tournament thrusts Ela into a tug of war over an ancient manor. A young knight wants to wrest the family estates from his mother and Ela finds her own roles as countess and castellan challenged as accusations of murder ring in the air.

The Ela of Salisbury Medieval Mystery Series

Great Series

I love these books. The thought of a woman sherif, a true historical character, really brought the stories alive

Medieval Life

Loved this book. It brought to life the injustices women endured as the law and men’s attitudes to women’s rights made their life so unfair and unjust. Ela did something towards improving the lot under her jurisdiction .
