A witch is strangled by a hanged man. A mad dowser tracks demons and monsters. A miller's ghost haunts his mill. A drowned fisherman speaks through the cry of seagulls. A scarecrow stalks its killer. Virgins are sold into slavery. A tournament charge leaves many knights dead and one murdered. A kidnapped girl vanishes into the forest... From Sherwood's Greenwood to the fetid streets of London, Robin Hood and Marian use logic and superstition, muscle and pluck, and fire and steel to track the darkest killers of the Dark Ages. "The atmosphere is vivid, the writing sharp, and the puzzles neatly constructed..." Steven Saylor "Robin and Marian are in good hands." Rick Riordan "Robin and Marian are ideal sleuths and Emery gives them a whole new lease on life." Mike Ashley "Clayton Emery's lively Robin and Marian tales of historical crime, misdeeds and gallivanting are like a breath of fresh air." Maxim Jakubowski
