Description
The Thirteenth Chronicle of Matthew Bartholomew by Susanna Gregory The winter of 1353 has been a harsh one, with a fever outbreak affecting the poorer townspeople and the country still reeling from the aftermath of the plague. As tensions between the town, Church, and University of Cambridge escalate, Matthew Bartholomew is called upon to investigate the suspicious deaths of three University members who died from drinking poisoned wine. His inquiry soon leads him down a path of discovery that implicates his own relatives, friends, and colleagues, threatening to upend the fragile balance of power in the town. In 1357, Cambridge University is facing a crisis of its own. The town's landlords are demanding exorbitant rent rises for the students' hostels, leaving the colleges with scant resources. As the situation spirals out of control, a charismatic physician arrives in town, touting healing methods that blend magic with medicine. His success is both captivating and unsettling, and Matthew Bartholomew must navigate the treacherous landscape of his own profession to uncover the truth. As Matthew delves deeper into the mystery, he must confront the darker aspects of human nature and the blurred lines between medicine and magic. With the fate of the town hanging in the balance, he must solve the case before it's too late.
