In the tradition of Ellis Peters' Brother Cadfael, Sister Frevisse is good at discerning both spiritual and secular mysteries.

An entertaining read. There are plenty murders involved but, like the first of the Sister Frevisse mysteries, I was able to guess the murderer early in the novel. Despite that fact, I enjoyed the book and enjoyed reading of the new characters introduced. It is also interesting to compare the portrayal of the crowner in these novels and the crowner in the Crowner John Mysteries. Reading medieval mysteries by different authors shines light on medieval life and times.

Book 2
the ending totally had me surprised! We also meet Joliffe who is the main character in another series by same author. This is a good one!

Enjoyable, medieval mystery. Follows the book "The Novice's Tale" but can be read as a stand-alone. I believe "The Boy's Tale" follows this one and I have it on my shelf but haven't read it yet.
