Season of the Raven by Denise Domning
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

In 1194 and Sir Faucon de Ramis is employed as the Keeper of the Pleas. One of his duties is to assign the cause of any death. On his first day the Priors Holston's miller, Halbert, is found dead. The Sheriff believes he drowned but Sir Faucon is convinced by Brother Colin, a herbalist, that he was murdered. It is for Sir Faucon to follow the clues. Meanwhile a young girl has been killed elsewhere
An enjoyable well-written mystery, with some likable characters.
