Blood On The Stone by Jake Lynch
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
17th March 1681 and King Charles II has arrived in Oxford. But Oxford is a place of conflict and tensions and soon a Member of Parliament is found dead. It is the duty of Luke Sandys, Chief Officer of the Oxford Bailiffs, to investigate, with the help of his deputy Robshaw.
The story contains background information on the daily lifes of Oxford inhabitants which for me enhances the mystery.
An enjoyable well-written story with a varied cast of characters, likeable and not so.
