Product Description
Rumors of plague threaten Cambridge again,10 years after the Black Death almost laid waste to the town. Neither the church nor its priests had defended people from the diseaseso now they turn elsewhere for protection, to pagan ritual and magical potions. It is a ripe atmosphere to be exploited by the mysterious Sorcerer, an anonymous magician whose increasing influence seems certain to oust both civil and church leaders from power. One murder, another unexplained death, a font filled with blood, a desecrated grave?all bear the hallmarks of the Sorcerer's hand, only the identity of the magician remains a mystery.A mystery which Matthew Bartholomew must solve before he loses his reputation . . . and his life.

  An excellent addition to this medieval series October 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Matthew Bartholomew is once again called upon to reduce the tension between town and gown in medieval Cambridge. If you think student unrest and violence is new, this series will quickly change your mind. And the animosity between the different monastic orders rings true through the centuries.

Not as sinister as some of her first books in the series. I like that period of time and find them enjoyable. She and Alys Clare remind me of Elis Peters.
