In 14th-century Cambridge, the tension between nominalists and realists reaches a critical point, dividing the colleges and threatening the peace. When a nominalist is murdered during a riot, Brother Michael, the Senior Proctor, suspects the Dominicans. However, the hanging of his assistant, Walcote, and the evidence discovered by Matthew Bartholomew point to Michael himself. Unable to believe that his friend is guilty, Bartholomew is forced to investigate to discover the truth and calm his conscience. A historical mystery plot that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the end.
Susanna Gregory is the pseudonym of Elizabeth Cruwys, a Cambridge academic who was previously a coroner's officer. She writes detective fiction, and is noted for her series of mediaeval mysteries featuring Matthew Bartholomew, a teacher of medicine and investigator of murders in 14th-century Cambridge.
