I love this series and this book did not disappoint. I love the characters Hugh de Singleton and his wife Kate. They are easy to love and to care about. The plot lines are not something to write home about, but if you want a pleasing, enjoyable, light, quick historical mystery, then this is the series for you. The series is written by a "Christian" author but do not let this put you off. While there are references to religious ideas, but if you can look past these, then the books are sure not to disappoint. I will be anxiously awaiting the next in the series.
