Book Description:
The latest medieval mystery in the acclaimed series finds Dame Frevisse on a mission in London to recover gold from the coffers of the murdered Duke of Suffolk and give the gold to her cousin.
Frevisse's co-conspirators in this secrecy are seamstress Anne Blakehall and her lover, a Jewish trader smuggling the gold through Anne's shop. But their mission is jeopardized when a crucified body is discovered, supposedly scarred with Hebrew letters, stirring up anti-Semitic sentiment in the populace.

Another strong book in a great historical mystery series. This book is a bit darker than the previous ones, but has to be to fit the realities of the times. This book could easily be read standalone, but I recommend starting at the beginning of the series.
