"Another exciting page-turner by Mel Starr. Confronted by skulduggery in the Black Prince's camp,resolute surgeon Hugh de Singleton risks neck and soul to uncloak the villains. Starr beautifully depicts the sounds,sights and smells,as well as the emotions,of the medieval world in this welcome addition to his long-running series."It's a bit of a cross between `Cadfael'and `Midsomer Murders'.
