Editorial Reviews
"The first of a new series by Pulman, author of the successful SHALOTT novels, again uses a medieval English setting. However, this time there is no time travel or courtly love involved: it is firmly grounded in the conflicts, power relationships and beliefs of the 1140s, adding realism to the murder mystery... I read this at one sitting. A strong start to what looks likely to be another good series." - Sue Page, AUSTRALIAN BOOKSELLER AND PUBLISHER
"If Felicity Pulman makes more to this fine series, I will be sure to read them." - Erin Watt, aged 12, Book Buddies Club
