Description
Medieval England. A hideous murder sets off a chain of events that will test the limits of one woman's skills and expertise. Adelia Aguilar, a rare female anatomist, is summoned to investigate a series of gruesome killings in Cambridge. With her knowledge of the human body and her ability to think outside the constraints of medieval society, she must navigate a complex web of suspicion and deceit to uncover the truth. As Adelia delves deeper into the case, she attracts the attention of a murderer who will stop at nothing to silence her. The investigation takes her from the streets of Cambridge to the castle and convents, where the lines between life and death are constantly blurred. With its vivid portrayal of 12th century England and its gripping plot, Mistress of the Art of Death is an exhilarating historical mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Ariana Franklin's masterful storytelling brings this gripping tale to life, with characters that are beguiling and a storyline that is utterly enthralling.
