This book takes place in the twelfth century in the town of Cambridge, England where four children have been murdered. A community of Jewish people have been blamed for the crimes by Catholics and have been given sanctuary by the king. The king hires an expert to help solve the mystery. The expert, Adelia, is a female which is not widely accepted by the English people. At times I felt like I was reading a foreign language but about halfway through the book, I really started to like the characters and the story. I will most likely go for the next story starring Adelia.
