Colmar, 1353 CE: Gritta, Appel, and Efi managed to survive the Black Death, only to find that they are in desperate need of money. With limited options and lots of obstacles, they band together to become alewives—brewing and selling ale in the free Alsatian town of Colmar. But when an elderly neighbor is discovered dead in her house, the alewives cannot convince the sheriff and the town council that her death wasn’t an accident—it was murder! As the body count piles up, the ale flows, and mystery is afoot!

Set in the tumultuous years after the most devastating pandemic the world has ever experienced, The Alewives is a playful romp through a dark time when society was reeling from loss, and a grieving population attempted to return to normal, proving that with the bonds of love, friendship, and humor, the human spirit will always continue to shine.

Set in the 14th century after the end of the plague. I chose this book because it is set in Colmar in the Alsace region of France (a place I'm going to visit for the first time next year).
At first I was annoyed at the accent and vernacular as it sounded like London's east end?
However, by chapter 2 I found this book very entertaining. Loved the characters - the 3 ladies who are the main characters, the friar, the kids. Murders, theft, brewing ale, and friendship!
I'm about to begin the second book in this series.

Highly entertaining!
