Company of Liars by Karen Maitland
4.0
For some reason Goodreads has deleted my original rating of this book. I've noticed that a few of my books have disappeared off my shelves on Goodreads lately, and I'm not sure why this keeps happening.
Anyway, I absolutely loved this book when I first read it. I'm thinking it could have been before I was on Goodreads that I first read this, but it could well have been afterwards, between 2010-2013 ish.
This is a well-written, well-researched book about the Black Death. A group of people set out on a journey, telling stories along the way, in the vein of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. From what I remember, more than one of them is not telling the truth, and the surprises that get unveiled along the way are what makes this such a good book.
If you like historical fiction, give this a go.
