Servant of Death

In this intriguing historical mystery, the brutal murder of Eudo, the Lord Bishop of Winchester's clerk, at Pershore Abbey sets off a tense investigation. Witty and persistent Sergeant Catchpoll, alongside his newly assigned and less welcome superior, Undersheriff Hugh Bradecote, must uncover who had a motive to kill despite many suspects harboring grievances. As the investigation unfolds within the confining walls of the abbey, the killer's shadow looms, and danger escalates with a second strike.
