Title: Mystery Without a Murder
Review: THE RAVEN IN THE FOREGATE by the late Ellis Peters delivers a full-fledged mystery without a murder. This is rare in mystery fiction and it is a delight when it is done well. Ellis Peters had the prose and style to keep us reading until the last page.1141 -- the civil war between Maud and Stephen is still taking its toll on the lives of their countrymen. Stephen was in power, then in prison, and now he's out again with full power. The Christmas season heralds glad tidings and change as the new year approaches, but Maud supports are on the run for their lives. Many are hiding in Shrewsbury looking for ways to escape Stephen's wrath into Wales or Brittney.A great classic read.Nash Black, author of TRAVELERS.
