The Stone of Destiny by Paul Doherty
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1381 A murderer named as The Flayer is plaguing the city, killing streetwalkers, ten so far is known. Meanwhile at Westminster Abbey a Monk have died during fast day, poisoned. But he will only be the first.
Prior Austin of Melrose Abbey has come to chronicle The Great Revolt and St. Erconwald's's role in the event, while staying at the Piebald Inn but death follows the proceeding.
Brother Athelston and coroner Sir John Cranston are busy investigating the deaths.
Another entertaining and well-written historical mystery with its main likeable characters. A good addition to the series which can easily be read as a standalone story
