1311. Murder and mayhem prowl the highways and coffin paths of Medieval England... The dramatic and gripping twentieth novel in the much-loved Hugh Corbett series by Paul Doherty. A dark, medieval mystery perfect for readers of C. J. Sansom, E. M. Powell and Bernard Cornwell.
Praise for Paul Doherty's gripping mysteries:
His fascination for history comes off the page
Deliciously suspenseful, gorgeously written and atmospheric
Supremely evocative, scrupulously researched
An opulent banquet to satisfy the most murderous appetite
Paul Doherty has a lively sense of history...evocativeand lyrical descriptions
Teems with colour, energy and spills
The Hugh Corbett series . . . continues its magnificent vein of form. Massively recommended
