Book Description

Historical Mystery Series March 1, 2009

Bermondsey Priory, 1114: A young chaplain succumbs to the temptations of the flesh and suffers a gruesome punishment. From that moment the monastery is cursed and over the next 500 years, murder and treachery abound inside its hallowed walls. A beautiful young bride found dead two days before her wedding; a ghostly figure warns of impending doom; there is a plot to depose King Edward II; all the while mad monks and errant priests abound. Even the poet Chaucer finds himself drawn into the dark deeds and violent death which pervade this unhappy place.

I became addicted to this series after I read the first one. I can't wait to read the rest of the series. I am a sucker for mysteries and medieval times.

5.0 out of 5 stars House of Shadows The Medieval Murderers, March 6, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I enjoy the multiple authors who wrote this book, as well as their previous books. I am looking forward to book four and have pre-ordered it.

It is a nice change of pace from my usual choices.

I do like history and mystery and historical fiction and this book has it all and is light reading, nothing heavy, great to snuggle up with when getting ready to go to sleep.
