The Case of the Cantankerous Carcass

£2.49

Once more Brother Hermitage toils to avoid his duties as King’s Investigator, and fails miserably. But this time it’s personal. When his beloved old Abbot arrives at Wat the Weaver’s workshop asking for his aid, Hermitage cannot refuse. He only has one beloved old Abbot, after all. But this one comes with a web made by specially tangled spiders.

There are Normans involved of course, so far so normal. Add a monastery that no monk of sense would go anywhere near and a village of pagans whose answer to every problem is to set light to it and Brother Hermitage is out of his depth almost immediately. Wat and Cwen the weavers bring some common sense to the situation, but there isn’t much of that to begin with.

It’s medieval crime with all of the normal human failings – and a few new ones as well.

Reviews for The Case of the Cantankerous Carcass

Another thoroughly enjoyable journey through post Norman Conquest England. The humour is woven through the story without detracting from the plot.

Bringing history to life even though there’s death. So funny
