    About this ebook

    Nicolas Picard is riding home from Exeter when he's attacked by a snarling wildcat. Yet, when the body is found, there are lacerations on his neck put there by a human hand. He is involved in a land dispute and his wife claims to be the benefactor on his behalf. Picard's mistress emerges to stake her claim then a third woman - wife of the deceased original owner of the land - comes forward. Ralph Delchard and Gervase Bret have three human wildcats trying to tear out each other's throats. They wonder if one of the women committed the murder to get her hands on the land, but the root of the mystery lies far deeper than mere avarice.

      Marston's Domesday series is a winner!This is the eighth book in the series, and the story is just as good as the previous ones. Ralph and Gervaise, along with Hubert and Simon find themselves in Devon. They happen to arrive just after a very vicious murder has been done. One of the city's leading barons is found dead with this throat cut and slashes all over his face. Gervaise and Ralph realize that the victim is one of the main people in a land dispute that they will have to settle, and they know that the murder is connected to the land dispute. Both of them find themselves in danger before they can solve this particular case. I love the period detail in these books, and the likeable and real characters that Marstons has created. This is a great historical mystery series.
