About this ebook
The national bestselling hit hailed by the New York Times as a "vibrant medieval mystery...[it] outdoes the competition."
In medieval Cambridge, England, Adelia, a female forensics expert, is summoned by King Henry II to investigate a series of gruesome murders that has wrongly implicated the Jewish population, yielding even more tragic results. As Adelia's investigation takes her behind the closed doors of the country's churches, the killer prepares to strike again.

Such an interesting historical period- both in England & Europe! I like the idea of an Adelia & loved reading about her 2 worlds. Good blend of excitement & realism kept me turning pages until the end went a little over-the-top.
