This is a relatively short book to have covered as much historical ground as it did. Although it is called a mystery it is more historical and conflict in academia. Much is related on Thomas Becket and the Woman of Bath story in the Canterbury tales. I enjoyed all that but the pacing was uneven and at times the book was very dry. Historical readers will find more to like than mystery readers because of the focus of this book. ( )
