This book sounded intriguing to me from the first time I read its description- a murder mystery set in 12th Century England, with a female CSI, a Jew, and a tax collector as the 3 primary investigators into the gruesome deaths of 4 children.

The author sets up the mystery quite well, using primarily the female lead's point of view, giving sound reasons for her initial thoughts as to who the murderer is. The mystery grabbed my attention and kept it for the entire book. Unfortunately, the romance in the book was very distracting to me, especially at the end; I feel that the last few sections that centered on the romance could have been left out, which would have made the story better overall.
