A medieval mystery featuring Hugh Corbett
2 total works
The death of Lord Henry Fitzalan on the feast of St Matthew, 1303, is a matter widely reported but little mourned. Infamous for his lecherous tendencies, his midnight trysts with a coven of witches and his boundless self-interest, he was a man of few friends. So when Hugh Corbett is asked to bring his murderer to justice it is not a matter of finding a suspect but of choosing between them. Docherty's eleventh Hugh Corbett mystery is full of the same taut plotting and historiacl precision that fans have grown to love.
