Matthew Bartholomew doesn't want to travel to Peterborough in the summer of 1358, but his friendship with the lovely Julitta Holm has caused a scandal in Cambridge, so he has no choice. He is one of a party of Bishop's Commissioners, charged to discover what happened to Peterborough's abbot, who went for a ride one day and has not been seen since. When the Commissioners arrive, they find the town in turmoil.

A feisty rabble-rouser is encouraging the poor to rise up against their overlords, the abbey is at war with a powerful goldsmith and his army of mercenaries, and there are bitter rivalries between competing shrines. One shrine is dedicated to Lawrence de Oxforde, a vicious felon who was executed for his crimes, but who has been venerated after miracles started occurring at his grave. However, it is not long before murder rears its head, and its first victim is Joan, the woman in charge of Oxforde's tomb...

Susanna Gregory’s books are always convoluted and David Thorpe as a narrator simplifies because he makes each character distinct, unfortunately this narrator makes every character sound the same so the plot becomes difficult to follow. Please bring back David Thorpe.

I always look forward with relish to a new Mathew Bartholomew, the shock went it started lasted the full read. Sorry but he has destroyed the comic banter that David Thorpe acts out

Please re-record

Oh Susanna the new narrated has ruined your wonderful plot

As usual, a very interesting and absorbing story. Having listened to all previous books in the series I was disappointed in changes in pronunciation of two names and the change of voices.

I really enjoy Susan Gregory's books but I wish there was some consistency as the whole thing about listening to stories for me is to be able to picture in your mind your characters. If only those filling in for a reader would listen to the books that had gone before and match the nuances then I wouldn't be so disappointed when they change over. I find the reader in this case really changes the characters and that ruins the whole thing as far as I'm concerned.

sadly not the same reader

it is disconcerting to have a different narrator - takes longer to recognise who is who.
