Fifth book in the Series March 21, 2007
4 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the fifth book in the Sorrowful Mysteries of Brother Athelstan series. This novel combined with the early books in the Hugh Corbett series is one of Paul Doherty's earlier offerings and he has since written many more books and is now an established author of medieval novels and has also added a number of novels on Egypt to his ever growing list of titles. Having said that it is one of his earlier offerings does not mean that it is inferior to his current books, quite the opposite. The Hugh Corbett mysteries were and are extremely popular and Paul Doherty has found another winner with the Brother Athelstan series.
This books charts a mysterious happening on the river Thames, the life blood of the City of London in medieval times. An event that calls for all the skill and aptitude of the Sir John and Brother Athelstan. The pairing who have solved many of the more recent crimes, mysteries and murders in the London streets.
A ship of war has dropped anchor in the murky waters of the Thames and during the night, the entire watch of the ship, God's Bright Light, disappear, apparently without any trace. After a series of unaccounted for deaths and strange happening the Coroner and Brother Athelstan find themselves drawn into the thick of a bloody battle . . .
