Discover the gripping medieval mystery series featuring Hugh of Singleton.

Hugh of Singleton, fourth son of a minor knight, has been educated as a clerk, usually a prelude to taking holy orders. However, feeling no certain calling despite a lively faith, he turns to the profession of surgeon, training in Paris and then hanging out his sign in Oxford.

In "The Unquiet Bones," Hugh is asked by a local lord to track down the killer of a young woman. She is identified as the impetuous missing daughter of a local blacksmith, and her young man, whom she had provoked very publicly, is in due course arrested and sentenced at the Oxford assizes. With graphic medical procedures, misdirection, and droll medieval wit, this tale will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.

Readers have praised this book as "absolutely loved," "realistic," and "the best medieval mystery I've read in a while." Don't miss out on the chance to delve into this world of ambition, romantic distractions, and underlying Christian compassion.

Don't miss out on this thrilling read and join the many others eagerly awaiting the next instalment!
