A killer who can't be stopped. A request that can't be refused. In
1482 the Englishman Thomas Berrington is living in the last
remnants of Moorish Spain. A physician, he is an unwilling friend
to the most powerful man in the kingdom. When bodies start to turn
up, each showing the marks of a savage attack, Thomas is asked to
investigate. When one of the Sultan's wives is brutally murdered,
what begins as a reluctant task turns into a fight for survival.
Together with the eunuch Jorge, Thomas attempts to hunt down the
killer before they become his next victims. Except nothing is as it
seems-friends turn into enemies and enemies into friends. Thomas's
investigation lays bare the secrets of the Red Hill and the people
who inhabit it. His discoveries culminate in a battle not only for
his own life, but for the lives of those he loves.
Moorish Spain, 1484, and no-one is innocent. Thomas Berrington,
emigre Englishman who has made the doomed city of Garnatah his
home, is once again attempting to solve a series of mysterious
deaths. Accompanied by his companion, the palace eunuch Jorge,
Thomas struggles to discover the truth while those in power seek to
distract him. As his investigation continues, his personal life
splinters into chaos and he finds the Spanish once more demanding
his presence. As Thomas and Jorge draw closer to their quarry, the
killer's attention turns on them and those they love. The pair must
race to unmask the sin eater before the lives of those close to
them become forfeit. The Sin Eater is the follow up to The Red Hill
and Breaker of Bones, stunning historical mysteries set in a time
and place coloured by intrigue and battle.
