Review # 1 was written on 2018-05-22 00:00:00 Toni Fox-corwin Hugh Corbett is an amazing character. In this P. C. Doherty mystery, Angel of Death, Hugh surmises right at the death of the Dean of St. Paul's during a High Mass which King Edward I is attending that the method of death is administered as the priests prepare for holy communion, but which one and why? The author takes events directly from history as the Dean of St. Paul's, Walter de Montfort, did die during this important service. I am truly enjoying getting to know the character of Hugh Corbett as well as his assistant, Ranulf. Doherty's writing jumps right off the page. His historical knowledge and his historical writing is without doubt mesmerizing!

Review # 2 was written on 2020-02-06 00:00:00 Sunwoo Hwang Il libro fa parte della serie con Hugh Corbett, ambientato nel 1299. Il decano della cattedrale di Saint Paul è stato avvelenato durante la messa solenne, alla presenza di re Edoardo I. Chi volevano avvelenare davvero? Il re forse? Doherty ha scritto numerose serie storiche sotto vari pseudonimi ed è molto accurato anche nelle descrizioni di ambienti, usi e costumi del tempo. D'altronde è un riconosciuto studioso di storia medievale e ha conseguito il dottorato in storia con una tesi sul regno di Edoardo II.
