About this ebook
Deadly secrets dwell behind closed doors...
In the summer of 1380 a French captain is murdered in Hawkmere Manor a lonely, gloomy dwelling place, otherwise known as the 'Devil's Domain'.
The house is used by Regent John of Gaunt to house French prisoners, captured during the bloody battles waged between the French and the English on the Narrow Seas.
Sir John Cranston and Brother Athelstan are summoned to investigate the mysterious death but their path is riddled with obstacles. How could the murderer have entered the Frenchman's chamber when the room was locked from within?
Brother Athelstan is back in another full-throttle medieval mystery, perfect for fans of C. J. Sansom, E. M. Powell and S. J. Parris.
