Comments & Further Information

A Second Printing with a 2 to 10 number sequence. Price still on dustjacket. A mystery featuring the medieval sleuth Hugh Corbett. “The brothers of the abbey of St Martin’s-in-the-Marsh usually pay little heed to the tales of robber baron Sir Geoffrey Mandeville’s ghost galloping through the Lincolnshire fens with a retinue of ghastly horsemen. They may hear the shrill blast of a phantom hunting horn, or see the corpose candles glowing in the dark, but none really accepts the peasants’ belief that these flickering lights can forewarn men of their own deaths.” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
