"This superb series isn't kidding when it describes itself as
medieval noir.... The writing is wonderful and the history vividly
presented. Not to be missed by fans of real historical
mysteries."
--"RT Book Reviews" (Top Pick!)"Westerson skillfully lulls her
sleuth and the reader into a sense of 'I know what is going on, '
then zings them with the truth. Absolutely first-class; highly
recommended."
--"Library Journal""A solid plot and cast of characters, a feel for
the story's place and time (fourteenth-century England), and an
appealing noirish air. A welcome addition to the medieval-mystery
landscape."
--"Booklist""Westerson's third 14th-century historical featuring
disgraced knight Crispin Guest ... is the best yet."
--"Publishers Weekly""Information on 14th-century anti-Semitism and
homosexuality are highlights of Crispin's third adventure, based on
a real 15th-century crime spree."
--"Kirkus Reviews"
