In May 1195, Sir John de Wolfe investigates in Exeter a series of murders whose victims perish in a manner reflecting their supposed sin. At each scene, the killer leaves a biblical passage, revealing a literate criminal in an age of near-total illiteracy. Crowner John, the coroner, deduces that the murderer can only be a priest.

For readers of historical crime fiction and medieval mysteries, as well as those following the Crowner John coroner series.
