The Hunter's Tale by Margaret Frazer

A Dame Frevisse Medieval Mystery

See my other posts on books by the same author. This one was quite good, except I did not care for the end when Dame Frevisse settled for letting the murderer go unpunished. Would a nun really have gone along with that? True, the murderer did go off to the village priest to confess and get penance, but that seems a little too easy for two particularly brutal murders. I'm not that well-versed in Catholic theology, so maybe I'm missing something here. Nonetheless, this was very enjoyable to read.
