pickThe vill of Sticklepath holds many dark secrets and when the skeleton of a young girl is found and rumours of cannibalism abound, Sir Baldwin and friends come to investigate.
The author is very good at invoking an atmosphere but be warned, it's a very depressing one.
panSimon Puttock organises a tournament for Lord Hugh, only to find his efforts come to nothing when bodies turn up and he is cast as main suspect.
Not 1 of the author's best. I kept getting some of the potential suspects muddled and realised who the murderer actually was pretty early on. Also 2 of the victims (out of 5) were a gay couple, IIRC the 1st gay characters in this series, but our sympathies were obviously meant to lie with the murderer.
This just became available on Libby and it's been in the tbr, so I guess it's my new read!
pickSoft pick. It's beautifully illustrated, with in-line colour illustrations, but it feels a bit... random? There wasn't a lot that surprised me, and I'd be hard-pressed to pick out any main points.
