The Unquiet Bones (The Chronicles of Hugh de Singleton, Surgeon, #1)The Unquiet Bones by Melvin R. Starr
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1363. Hugh of Singleton, as the fourth son of a minor knight, had been educated as a clerk but feels a calling to become a surgeon.
On setting himself up in Oxford chance brings him to the attention of Lord Gilbert, Third Baron Talbot, lord of Bampton Castle. He offers Hugh the chance to be a surgeon to the area, but soon he finds himself investigating a death when bones are found in the garderobe of the castle.
An enjoyable historical mystery, well-written and a cast of likeable characters. I look forward to reading the next in the series.
A very good solid start to the series.
