No Murder Here
Informazioni su questo ebook
5* So well written, so entertaining and amusing.
5* A great read from start to finish
There is no murder here.
And even if there was, under no circumstances is Brother Hermitage, King William’s investigator, to be allowed anywhere near it.
This is a very sensitive matter for the Duke of Normandy, now King of England, and he wants it dealt with properly. He doesn’t want a band of Saxon idiots trampling all over the place, offending everyone.
But, in a far-off outpost of the duchy, an ancient ritual has been enacted, which immediately went horribly wrong. Someone must be sent to find out what happened and who is behind it.
Negotiating the way through scheming and feuding locals will demand sensitivity.
Untangling superstition from fact will require careful analysis.
Appreciating custom and practice will need a sympathetic ear.
And you’ll need to speak the right language, obviously.
So, this is really not a job for Brother Hermitage. It’s probably even more inappropriate for the weavers, Wat and Cwen - the woman who stares at people and the man who made those disgusting pictures. Keep them away.
However, the more explicit the instruction, the greater the chance of mistake…
In any case, there is no murder here.
Oh, really?
Informazioni sull'autore
Howard of Warwick: the world's best-selling author of medieval crime comedy.
And now an official Amazon No. 1 Best Seller around the globe...
Paperbacks are available from The Funny Book Shop: https://funnybookcompany.com/
Unfortunately, Howard has written his name in some of them....
"Very, very good indeed... brilliant" BBC Coventry and Warwick.
Nearly 200,000 have graced his bookstall and more than 1,000 reviewers say things like "hilarious", "laugh out loud funny" and "stupid".
Howard is simply a humble chronicler with the blind luck to stumble upon the Brother Hermitage manuscripts. This young monk is clearly the archetype for many characters down the centuries but somehow, over the intervening years, those later figures started to know what they were doing. Brother Hermitage is more like Cadfael meets Clouseau.
Howard's work has been heard, seen and read, most of it accompanied by laughter and some of it by money. His peers have even seen fit to recognise his unworthy efforts with a prize for making up stories.
There are so many tales that they're starting to get out of hand: 31 Chronicles of Brother Hermitage, 3 historical "re-creations", a little something for Christmas and even some free short stories.
There is a dedicated web page www.Howardofwarwick.com. Dedicated to what, is a good question.
