Özet

England 1371. A solemn procession winds out of York Minster, after the funeral of Sir Ranulf Pagnell, patriarch of a powerful Yorkshire family. William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester, escorted the knight's remains north after his death in France, but he is shunned by the family. They hold him responsible for failing to negotiate the Sir Ranulf's ransom. Only a few days later, Wykeham's townhouse is found ablaze. The bishop has been staying with John Thoresby, Archbishop of York and is safe. But when the body of a young woman is discovered in the under croft, scandal threatens. Owen Archer is troubled. Was the fire an accident or arson? Was the woman left there to die or the fire intended to conceal her body? Stationing guards in front of the smouldering remains, he starts asking questions. When the dead woman is identified as a midwife known to many of the city's women, there is a flurry of panic. Owen has much to do if he is to discover who killed her - and why.

I like medieval mysteries and Candace Robb's Owen Archer books, read by Stephen Thorne, are an enjoyable listen.

Candace Robb has again delivered a brilliant "Archer" story. However I would like guidance as to the sequence of these stories as the Archers background story is out of order for me. As for Stephen Thorne brilliant, just wonderful voice, for that reason alone I would listen to anything he narrated.

Brilliant story.

I listened to all the Susanna Gregory books and thought I'd never find anything like them but I enjoyed these even more! Stephen Thorne is a lovely narrator. How does he go from Yorkshire to Welsh and back again with such ease and he doesn't overdo the women's voices either. I especially love Magda. I feel I know her! And just occasionally I feel I hear uncle Mort coming through in some voices! Yes the story - excellent. Such great plots. Great mysteries but not too far fetched and the characters live. Not a cardboard figure among them.

I love these books!

Really enjoying the series again having read them some time ago. Stephen Thorne is an excellent narrator too, nagging it a pleasure to listen to.

Another hit
