Title: Tyrant Rules St. Fredeswide
Product review: Margaret Frazer continues the tyrantical rule of Domina Alys in THE PRIORESS' TALE. The peace of St. Frideswide has been destroyed by her relatives that have taken up residence in the guest halls and the workmen who are attempting to build a tower without stone.The list of sins laid at Domina Alys' door is long: spending money they do not have, feeding her relatives from the precious stores of scant food as they face a hard winter after a poor harvest, kidnapping a young girl to force her into marriage, and murder.Domina Alys was a poor accidental choice as the nunnary declines and no one can change her course.An open window to the medieval world where power in the wrong hands destroys the good. This one has some very cruel scenes that are only lightened for Dame Frevisse with the advent of an old friend.Nash Black, author of SANDPRINTS OF DEATH
