A Morbid Taste for Bones by Ellis Peters

4.0

---

This is a good mystery story that doesn't rely on withholding information from the reader. Though not as rich in period detail as other historical mysteries, at least the mystery is comprehensible and able to solved by the reader ahead of the detective. "The solution, once revealed, must be obvious to the reader" as [a:Larry Niven|12534|Larry Niven|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1182720933p2/12534.jpg] said, and this does it well. Also, Ellis peters has ood way of describing beautiful women that reminds me of Tolkien (an author I can't seem to link to here).

Highly recommended.
