Book description
“Harrison, like Peter Tremayne in his Sister Fidelma series, provides a
superior brand of historical mystery” Booklist February, 1512. Mara,
Brehon of the Burren, judge and lawgiver, has been invited to the
magnificent city state of Galway, which is ruled by English laws and a
royal charter originally granted by Richard III. Mara wonders whether
she can use her legal knowledge to save the life of a man from the
Burren who has been caught stealing a meat pie, but events soon take an
even more dramatic turn when the mayor's son is charged with a heinous
crime. Sure there is more to the case than meets the eye, Mara
investigates . . .
