A company of mercenaries is in residence in the Devonshire
town of Crediton. Mercenaries are commonplace in the fourteenth century,
but these ones are particularly troublesome, showing no respect for
anyone and seducing the local girls. When a robbery takes place amongst
the mercenaries, Simon Puttock, bailiff of Lydford, and Sir Baldwin
Furnshill, Keeper of the King's Peace, are on hand to investigate.
Then a young girl is discovered murdered, hidden in a chest - and
this is only the first of the Crediton Killings.
As murder follows brutal murder, Simon and Baldwin must discover the
killer's identity before he can murder again - and before their own
lives, dangerously caught up in intrigue, are put at risk... |
