content: I usually do not do reviews with Amazon but after reading the previous one of this book I simply had to.I am a frequent reader of medieval mysteries and have read most of the "classics". With Michael Jecks series I found a new delightful author for myself.Even if historical backround may not be researched thouroughly enough (I do not know enough to judge this) I liked the book immensely.For me it was one of those books I simply cannot lay down. The mystery itself is surprising (even if the final solution is a bit aprupt and simple) and kept me guessing the whole book through. Furthermore I like the main characters - while defining the two major actors (bailiff and knight) in the first novel, other characters achieve more depths in this second story (e. g. the seargeant) - and their development from the previous book.I for sure am looking forward to read the next novels (which I just ordered) and hope that the quality of the books continues to be good.
