Gripping medieval murder mystery set in a time of violent upheaval
Hanley sets the stage for a page turner with a gentle lady in peril, a heartsick warrior set on heroics, a level-headed detective, and a village and castle filled with said lady’s accusersThe game’s afoot when floodwaters trap these combustibles in the castle. Highly recommended! -- Candace Robb

"A gift for medievalists everywhere…Hanley really knows her stuff. More please." -- Cassandra Clark
C.B. HANLEY holds a PhD in Medieval Studies specialising in warfare in the 12th and 13th centuries and its portrayal in contemporary vernacular literature. She has published an academic book and a number of scholarly articles on the period, and continues to write non-fiction history as well as novels. Between her first degree and PhD she spent some time working as a historical interpreter, which gave her a practical grounding in medieval life to add to her theoretical studies, which is very useful in adding background colour to her novels. She is also a freelance copy editor and proof-reader.
