This book was well written, but it wasn't entirely believable. A 13th century female sarisan doctor to the dead is called to England to investigate the deaths of a number of children accused of being murdered by Jews.

Follows all the usual twists and turns of an episode of CSI.

The author seems to have an incredibly heretical view of the Church seemingly accusing every single priest and religious as being sexual deviants.

In addition, there is an unnecessarily graphic description of intercourse during the final chapters.

If I hadn't already purchased the sequel, I probably wouldn't bother reading it.
