This review is from: A Season of Knives: A Sir Robert Carey Mystery (Hardcover)
Set along the Scots/English border during the late sixteenth century, this story is loaded with action. Sir Robert Carey is a cousin of Queen Elizabeth and the new Deputy Warden of the West March, a very rough part of England where family feuds are important and Carey is an outsider with no land and few men to rally for support in a battle. His one asset locally is his sister, Philadelphia, who is married to the influential Lord Scrope. Carey also gets much needed help from Sergeant Henry Dodd. The sergeant has a knack for showing up just in time. Together they make a formidable duo. Carey has birth, influence and the Queen's favor. Dodd has a good solid tower, land at lease and kin who will follow him.
