No Law in the Land
(2009)(Book 27 in the Medieval West Country Mystery series)
A novel by Michael Jecks
The new riveting novel from the West Country's medieval crime master Michael Jecks. Keeper of the King's Peace, Sir Baldwin de Furnshill, and his friend, Bailiff Simon Puttock, inform King Edward II that his estranged wife, Queen Isabella, is set on defying him. The King flies into a rage and Baldwin and Simon are told that they are no longer in his favour. Back in Devon, they discover that outlaws now hold sway in the land. Sir Robert, a knight from the King's household, has turned outlaw from his castle near Crediton. When a pair of clerics are found brutally murdered, Baldwin and Simon are asked to investigate. But they discover the culprit is a friend of the King's, and neither Simon or Baldwin are keen to take the matter further. That is until Simon's daughter is threatened by Sir Robert; then, all hell is let loose!
