Hi all,

 

I've just submitted for proofing "By Murder's Bright Light: Being The Fifth
Of The Sorrowful Mysteries Of Brother Athelstan" by Paul Doherty.

 

It's been read and spell-checked. All headers stripped, page numbers/chapter
titles present, fonts adjusted.

279 pages.

 

Description:

It is the winter of 1379 and a sea of trouble is besetting England as French
privateers continue to attack the southern coast on a path to threaten
London itself.  In response an English flotilla of warships, withGod's
Bright Lightin its number, has dropped anchor in the Thames.  When the sun
rises on the flotilla's first morning, the first mate and two of the crew
ofGod's Bright Light have disappeared without a trace.  Sir John
Cranston-the wine-loving Coroner of the City-and his clerk Brother Athelstan
are summoned to resolve the mysteries on board the ill-omened warship.  In
particular, they must search out the truth behind the death of Sir Henry
Ospring, who after visiting the ship's captain was later viciously stabbed
to death in a tavern chamber.  As Cranston and Brother Athelstan
investigate, they find themselves in the thick of a bloody battle as
scandal, treason, and murder rule the day.

 

Deborah
