The Clerk's Tale by Margaret Frazer

4.0

This is the first I've read in this mystery series featuring 15th-century fictional nun Dame Frevisse. My late friend Francis, who gave it to me years ago, knew me too well: it combines two of my favorite things--mysteries and medieval monastic life--and sprinkles in a nice touch of Latin. Enjoyable! I may have to go back and read some of the early books in the series. I read it quickly--for me--because I feared losing track of the names in the complicated inheritance case at the center of this story. (I still might prefer Brother Cadfael . . . )
