This is another of the medieval mysteries featuring Hugh Corbett and I'm happy to say the books are improving as the series progresses.
This one is set in 1302 and includes a plot featuring Robin Hood. In the acknowledgements the author clarifies the true events the book is based on, and his research appears to be extremely thorough, referencing Folio Numbers from the British Library and records from the Public Office. His level of research and detail is precisely the reason I'm enjoying this historical fiction series so much.
My rating = ****
Carpe Librum!
