Knight Templar Bascot de Marins is sent to Lincoln Castle to recover from injuries suffered in the Crusades alongside King Richard. He hopes to recover his strength of body and mind here, but shortly after arriving foul murder of four people is committed. He is asked to investigate. Those murdered include the illegitimate son and his pregnant wife of a noble that lives near Lincoln. They had been travelling from France as a result of an invitation from the noble.
During de Marins' investigation two more people are murdered. Can one person be responsible for all of these murders? De Marins puts his own life on the line to bring the murderer to justice.
Maureen Ash has woven a very good story in "The Alehouse Murders", one I am sure you will enjoy.
