Another Funny Book. Cwen cover jpeg double dagger shrunkIs there no end to the murderous goings on of medieval England? Hopefully not. Yet another Chronicle of Brother Hermitage is released into the wild. And this time Cwen is in the middle of it all. A fine young tapestrier with nimble fingers, an excellent eye for colour, great skill at the loom and some very peculiar relatives. Deceit, death, destruction and silliness; business as usual.

To be released upon the world on August 25th, the ninth outing of the fully medieval, but barely detective, Brother Hermitage. Another 90-odd thousand words of confusion, chaos and death, much like life, really.

The Case of the Curious Corpse continues to amuse, with over 1,000 out there somewhere.

No sooner is a corpse dealt with than a carcass comes along. The Case of The Cantankerous Carcass nears completion and should be available in a matter of weeks: Poor Brother Hermitage has to investigate, even though the body is a bit less dead than normal.

The Case of the Curious Corpse hits the world today. 700 gone in the first 8 hours – and in the month leading up… One of Brother Hermitage’s trickiest cases, mainly because King William is breathing down his neck most of the time. There’s an absolute queue of suspects, a confusion of evidence and even a little rhyme about the men of the marshes. Who did it? Who knows? Certainly not the King’s Investigator…
