Headline Book Publishing Ltd The Demon Archer (A Mystery Featuring Medieval Sleuth Hugh Corbett)
Ashdown Forest, 1303: an outlaw, the Owlman, discovers the corpse of a woman (a noblewoman?) in a shallow forest grave, an arrow in her throat. Unwilling to leave the decomposing body to the scavengers--this writing is graphic--Owlman delivers her to the door of the local convent: he'd give Lady Madeleine and her nuns an opportunity to show some charity. So begins <I>The Demon Archer</I>, Paul Doherty's 11th Hugh Corbett mystery and another classic in the genre of medieval detective fiction. Within pages, there's a second corpse: Lord Henry Fitzalan, the very image of gothic sexuality and corruption--the Owlman's prime suspect in the death of the woman, a great lord, a friend and confidant of the King, he dabbles in the black arts--is felled by an arrow to the chest. Hunting accident, or murder? Enter Hugh Corbett, keeper of the King's Secret Seal, directed to track down Sir Henry's murderer and--the plot thickens--to test the dead Lord's allegiance to the King, Edward II. A heady brew of murder, history and politics drives this fiction--together with the promise of what Doherty calls a certain historical truth in the characters and events framing this complex tale. --<I>Vicky Lebeau</I>
