Lord Gilbert Talbot must provide soldiers for Prince Edward’s battle in France. He wishes his surgeon–Hugh de Singleton–to travel with the war party to tend any injuries. Among those on the road is Sir Simon Trillowe, Hugh’s old nemesis, who had once torched Hugh’s house.<\/p>\n

Finding himself in the same war party, Hugh resolves to watch his back in the presence of the knight, who is still holding a grudge. But it is Sir Simon who should not have turned his back….<\/p>\n

When Trillowe’s body is found, many suspect Hugh has wreaked revenge on his adversary. To clear his name, Hugh must once again riddle a reason for murder.

\nSometimes there is nothing better than to get lost in a good book and this book provided me just the escape that I needed. I’ve only read one other book in this series. After reading this one, I’m going to have to try to figure out why that might be.<\/p>\n

While this book only clocks in at 148 pages, that isn’t a bad thing. It’s the perfect size to tuck into a bag or to curl up with on a cool evening. While the author uses historical terms in the book, he also provides a fantastic glossary at the start of the book so you won’t be lost among strange words you may have never seen before. As for the story itself, it moves along at just the right speed and while I had figured out parts of the mystery, parts of it took me by surprise. As a mystery lover, I appreciate this. Books where I feel clueless or far too smart just aren’t as much fun to read.<\/p>\n

My recommendation? Pick up this book or heck, the entire series! This book stands perfectly on its own, but I highly suspect that you’ll enjoy the entire series and with those cold winter nights ahead, why not build up your books to be read by the fire pile?<\/p>\n
