Crowner Royal (Crowner John Mysteries) (Hardcover)

~ Bernard Knight (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Fans of Crowner John won't be disappointed."  —Kirkus Reviews

"Rayne's wealth of intriguing characters and situations has you continually putting two and two together and making five, but when the truth emerges, you wonder why you didn't see it coming. Clues to all the bizarre twists and turns are there, but so well constructed that each time you are taken by surprise."  —Western Daily Press

"Detection and suspense are combined with historical authenticity."  —Daily Mail

"Packed with the sights, sounds and smells of medieval England, the Crowner John series is a national treasure."  —Birmingham Post

Product Description

It is April 1196. At the command of King Richard and his Chief Justiciar Hubert Walter, county coroner Sir John de Wolfe—along with his officer Gwyn of Polruan and clerk Thomas de Peyne—has left Exeter for London where he is to become the first Coroner of the Verge. Thrust into the intrigues of the closed world of the Royal Court, John quickly finds himself embroiled in a case of theft, blackmail, espionage, and murder.
