The Noose's Shadow by Graham Brack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1690 Master Mercurius is approached by Sara Zwart of Oegstgeest Her husband, Jaco, has been arrested for the murder of their neighbour, Wolf and is due to be hanged. But she believes him to be innocent and wants his help to prove it. Mercurius investigates with the help of Boudewyn, the mayor's clerk.
Another enjoyable and well-written historical mystery with its likeable main character.
