Description

In medieval Cambridge, physician Matthew Bartholomew is drawn into a dangerous investigation when a disturbing discovery threatens to expose secrets buried within the university and the Church. As rival factions, academic ambition, and religious authority collide, Bartholomew must rely on his medical knowledge and keen powers of observation to uncover the truth. Rich in period detail and atmosphere, this compelling mystery explores corruption, superstition, social tension, and the uneasy relationship between reason and faith.
