I Say No Book

This exciting mystery is the 11th volume of the excellent "Matthew Bartholomew Chronicles" by the author, Susanna Gregory.
At the beginning of the book you'll find a well-drawn map of Cambridge, England, in the AD 1350s, while at the end you'll notice a very well documented Historical Note concerning this wonderful historical mystery.
Storytelling is once more of a superb quality, and the figures featuring in this tale, whether they are real historical or wonderful fictional, come all vividly to life within this thrilling mystery, while also Cambridge and its surroundings are beautifully pictured within this story of mayhem and murder.
After an intriguing prologue which is set in early AD 1355, during the riots in Oxford, the main story begins in the Spring of AD 1355, and Oxford scholars and merchants marching into Cambridge in an attempt to escape from those deadly riots which had a devastating effect on life in Oxford.
All too soon into the story several men with Oxford connections are killed with the mark of a kind of wolf-bite, but this bite is made from steel.
And so Physician Matthew and Brother Michael come once again into action, and they set off in a pursuit to catch this determined killer very early on in attempt to bring him straight to justice, certainly before the Archbishop of Canterbury's Visitation to Cambridge, but they are thwarted at every turn in their desperate effort.
What is to follow is an eventful encounter between Matthew and Michael on the one hand and the murderer on the other, and our formidable duo will have to do their utmost to solve the riddles connecting these murders, before they will be able to catch the surprising cunning culprit(s) of these horrible murders.
Very much recommended, for this is another gripping episode of the adventures of Matthew and Michael, and that's why I like to say that this book has certainly: "The Mark of a Great Mystery"!
