The Holy Innocents door Kate Sedley
This was my first book by Sedley in her Roger the Chapman series. I must admit to thoroughly enjoying the book. I was completely engaged with the characters. I thought the mystery was tightly written. The author does an excellent job of creating a well written story with great historical accuracy and interest. I will definitely be picking up the other books in this series!
A slight but readable historical murder mystery set in fifteenth-century England. Roger the Chapman—a former novice turned travelling peddler—is more perceptive than many people, and uses his observational powers to help figure out who was responsible for multiple deaths in the town of Bristol. Kate Sedley writes briskly and with a good eye for historical detail; the approach to gender here did remind me on more than one occasion that this book was written in the '90s. I wouldn't swear off reading more from this series in the future, but I'm also not going to keep a particular eye out from more installments of it either.… (meer)
Alguien planea un atentado contra la vida del duque de Gloucester. Nadie sabe quién, cómo ni porqué, pero obviamente no es un simple rumor. De hecho, sí se conoce un dato: la fecha. Por azar, Roger Chapman se ve atrapado en medio de la conflictiva situación cuando viaja camino de Londres, y su vocación de investigador le impide quedarse al margen. Además, el poderoso duque es el más fiel vasallo de Eduardo IV, y su muerte podría desestabilizar el reino. Chapman emplea a fondo sus dotes de observación, pero el enemigo está más cerca de lo que imagina.… (meer)
