The "richly detailed, almost indecently thrilling" (New York Times) follow up to The Serpent's Tale

When a fire at Glastonbury Abbey reveals two skeletons, rumor has it they may belong to King Arthur and Queen Guinevere. King Henry II hopes so, for it would help him put down a rebellion in Wales, where the legend of Celtic savior Arthur is strong. To make certain, he sends Adelia Aguilar, his Mistress of the Art of Death, to Glastonbury to examine the skeletons.

At the same time, the investigation into the abbey fire will be overseen by the Bishop of St. Albans, father of Adelia's daughter. Trouble is, someone at Glastonbury doesn't want either mystery solved, and is prepared to kill to prevent it...

I found this series when I rejoined audible and was hooked within the first five minutes of listening. I have nothing but good things to say about both the writing and the narration! The interaction among the characters is interesting, humorous and believable and the who-dunnit in each novel is never easy to figure out, something I appreciate immensely! No bodice rippers disguised as a weakly written mystery - yea!

Excellent writing and narration

I wish Audible would put these in order, though. The first in the series is Mistress in the Art of Death. Second is The Serpent's Tale; third is Grave Goods; fourth is Murderous Procession. The books, consumed in the correct sequence, develop the main characters quite well and each story line is totally satisfying.

Great series

The historical facts around which this story lives is again enlightening. But the mysteries catch the reader, and doesn't let go until After the epilogue, which also gives historical knowledge.

Excellent

Not as good as book 1 of the series but still very enjoyable

This is the third in the series, and so far, very good. All are well written and hold you until the end to find out what has happened. They close with all the loose ends tied up and don't require you to get the next one to find out what will happen. I like that in a series. Also, they reference the previous novel's characters and events but don't require that you have read them to understand the plot.

While I like the protagonist very much, I don't like the constant reference to her full name. It sounds so egotistical and she isn't that sort of heroine. The twists of plot and Adelia's sense of self worth make for a good female lead. I have enjoyed them very much though I think they are similar in the general outline from one to the next.

Engaging
