Friar-sleuth Brother Athelstan is caught in a politically charged race against time! He must uncover the truth behind numerous gruesome murders in this tense historical mystery set in medieval London.
Normandy, 1358: The Free Company of the ‘Via Crucis — the Way of the Cross’ sweeps into the peaceful village of Avranches, like the riders from the Apocalypse, leaving nothing but death and hellish destruction in their wake.
London, 1382: Brother Athelstan is summoned to unpick the ugly truth behind a number of killings afflicting the great city. Some carried out like clean, efficient assassinations, all bearing the message ‘Justitia Fiat — let there be justice’, others inflicting torture and humiliation upon the bodies. But the victims all have one thing in common — they were all once members of Via Crucis.
With every new gruesome discovery, Brother Athelstan, with the help of Coroner Cranston, uncovers more clues which make up a most complicated riddle — but can he put together the last piece before the fate of the whole country is decided?
A skilfully plotted and researched medieval mystery which will appeal to fans of C.J. SANSOM
