The Nun's Tale by Candace Robb

4.0

I am hoping this is just a hiccup in what is normally a very good series. I did finish it, so it was reasonably good and I like the main characters, Owen and Lucie, and I like the premise of Owen being an investigator, past archer for the kingdom, and apprentice apothecary to his wife Lucie. Add in the fact that it's a historical mystery and it shows a time that I knew little to nothing about.
This one had so many twists and turns and a character that had me wanting to smack her upside the cranium she was so horrid and spoiled.
The political machinations were exhausting and the plot a bit convoluted but I kept reading because I have faith in the author. I will keep reading the series as I find the books.
