A review by lisaebetz
The Lady Chapel by Candace Robb
4.0
The second in the Owen Archer mystery series. Some time has passed since the first book. Owen is enjoying his apprenticeship as an apothecary, but he still owes allegiance to the Archbishop which propels him, reluctantly, into solving another murder. The fact that he has doubts about his abilities as a detective makes hims a more likable sleuth.
The author does a good job of fleshing out the 14th century world in which Owen lives. Some of the motivations seem awfully modern, but perhaps people haven't really changed all that much.
