Format:Paperback
This is the fifth book in Michael Jeck's entertaining Knights Templar Mysteries. The main characters Sir Baldwin de Furnshill, Keeper of the King's Peace and his friend the Bailiff Simon Puttock are now old friends to the reader. Combine the inter action between the main characters with the beautiful background of west country Devon and it is obvious that Michael Jecks is on to a winner with his increasingly popular books.
Medieval novels are becoming increasingly popular with the reading public and there are a number of well written books by authors such as Paul Doherty, Bernard Knight, Susanna Gregory, to name but a few. Michael Jecks is steadily getting himself on a par with these fine novelists.

The historical detail is meticulous and detailed in the author's note. It is particularly interesting to one who lives in Devon or has special interests in the place or time. There is a marvellous description of hunting with dogs,showing the excitement and feel of the chase which is one of the best descriptions I have ever read and brings the whole scene to life.

I confess to being a devoted Jecks fan. He is an author who takes pride in producing quality tale and enjoyment for his readers. Jecks, and b. Knight, are the two authors I have found worthwhile following.
