This first book in the Sergeant Felse series is so different than Ellis Peter's Cadfael series that at times I thought it must be by a different author. At times it seemed to bog down into what I consider to be the least attractive characteristic of English mystery authors - too much discussion of matters not pertaining to the plot.

Still, other parts were fascinating - especially the last few chapters - and I plan to continue reading in this series. At least, the two other books that I have on hand, before I make a final decision on whether to read them all.
