Owen Archer suspects an old adversary is on his tail as he seeks to
solve the mystery surrounding a dead body found on the road to
York. "A standout . . . Robb reinforces her place among the top
writers of medieval historicals" - Publishers Weekly Starred Review
October, 1376. Owen Archer is summoned by sheriff Sir Ralph
Hastings regarding a stripped and bloodied body discovered on the
road north to York. Could it be connected to an attack on a carter
and his labourers who were transporting stone destined for St
Clement's Priory? The carter fled, but his men stayed to fight and
are now missing. Is the victim one of them? At first Owen believes
the catalyst for murder and menace in York is the arrival of the
political pariah William Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester. But he soon
suspects that a formidable and skillful adversary from his past has
arrived in the city, thrusting him and his family into grave
danger, and his investigation becomes a race to uncover the truth
before his old nemesis destroys all he holds dear.
