Summary

William Dougal, a post-graduate expert in the medieval script of Caroline Minuscule, stumbles on the garroted corpse of his tutor and finds himself embroiled in a hunt for a cache of diamonds, in a deadly fairy story in which no one obeys the rules. Least of all Dougal's girlfriend Amanda.

As the body count rises, the couple pursue the diamonds from London to an East Anglian cathedral close, from Cambridge to a wintry Suffolk estuary.

Dreary

Haven’t read (listened) to a book before this one where I never liked any of the characters. Slow, daft plot read in a similar fashion.

Great stuff

I really enjoy these rather old-fashioned crime books - and this one was very good. On to second-in-series.
