An average medieval murder mystery which starts promisingly and ends well but drags badly in between.

Slow in parts

Liked the details like about medicine/poisons and the nods to historical detail, such as is known, and how the character of Geoffrey has been grown, great portrayal of the English countryside and its dangers to the unwary, Not entirely sure the plot can quite sustain the length of the book, but stick with it as the threads sort of come together at the end.

Entertaining enough
