Originally published: 2014.
"Kent, 1350: the Black Death has changed the land forever, taking master and servant alike.
Young Oswald de Lacy was never meant to be Lord of Somershill Manor, but with his father and brothers killed by the Plague, he must return from the monastery and take charge of the estate.
Immediately Oswald is confronted with the vicious murder of a young woman, Alison Starvecrow. The village priest claims it is the work of demonic dog-headed men. Oswald knows this is nonsense, but to prove it, he must find the real killer - in a maze of political intrigue, family secrets and violent strife.
And then the body of another girl is found..." -- Back cover
