    Rest Not in Peace
  

*by L***8 on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2013*

Mel Starr has written another winner in the medieval mystery genre!  I have read all the books in this series and am so grateful for Mel’s storytelling talent and ability to translate this talent to paper for readers’ enjoyment and entertainment.This story takes place mostly in Bampton Castle in 1368.  Hugh de Singleton, surgeon and bailiff for Lord Gilbert is called to the castle to determine the cause of death of one of Lord Gilbert’s guests, Sir Henry Burley.  At first, it appears a natural death, but upon further investigation Hugh discovers Sir Henry is the victim of foul play.  As the investigation proceeds, Hugh finds more suspects than he can rule out.  Sir Henry’s wife is known to want to be free of her husband to marry another.  His daughter wants to marry a squire against her father’s wishes.  Could on of these women have killed Sir Henry?  Maybe they worked together to end his life?  Both of the knights in Sir Henry’s employ desire Sir Henry’s wife.  Maybe they wanted to get Sir Henry out of the way?All too soon another murder takes place under Lord Gilbert’s roof, and he is not pleased.  He charges Hugh to find the murderer quickly so he can be rid of the unpleasant Lady Margery, Sir Henry’s widow.  Hugh continues to question members of Sir Henry’s retinue, but is unsatisfied with the direction his investigation takes him.  The solution seems too pat, so he continues his search.  He uncovers some unsavory information about Sir Henry and this opens up a new can of worms to weed through.Eventually, Hugh discovers the truth and the journey to discovery is well worth the time spent upon the path.  I really enjoyed reading about the food eaten and the language style of medieval times.  The mystery will keep readers engaged from beginning to end.  There are different suspects at different points in the story that hold readers’ minds, keeps them thinking and trying to figure out who the murderer is before the end of the novel.  I am looking forward to Hugh’s next adventure in The Abbot’s Agreement, which will be released in late 2014.  I highly recommend this very entertaining series for mystery-lovers everywhere.

    A fascinating mystery carved out of ancient England
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2022*

Two murders in the castle with very little hard evidence and a diverse cast of characters, each with the potential to know far more than they are telling drives this outstanding who-done-it and forces Hugh de Singleton to dig deeply into the lives and relationships of commoners and nobility.  An excellent addition to a great series and well worth the time

    Death visits Sir Gilbert's guests
  

*by P***O on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2013*

Hugh Singleton makes good use of his skills in this book. As a surgeon, he sews up a stab wound and straightens a broken nose. As an herbalist he relieves pain and insomnia.  And as bailiff to Sir Gilbert of Brampton Castle, he hunts the murderer of two of Sir Gilbert's guests.Although Hugh is a straightforward, fast-working surgeon, in the matter of solving crimes, he tends to be cautious, slow, and suspicious of obvious answers. In the Middle Ages, it was all too easy to hang an innocent person.  Hugh doesn't want that to happen by his act.I like Hugh's personality and always enjoy his company in these books. He's a thinker, constantly ruminating on human nature, ethics and religion. And I love watching him patch people up. I also appreciate the intelligence of his wife, and Hugh's fondness for wife and child.I particularly like Mel Starr's style of portraying Medieval life. Hugh always lets us know what's for dinner at the lord's table. The names of the dishes alone charm me: sole in cyve, pottage of whelks, eels in bruit, boar in confit... And I find it amusing that people drink ale at breakfast.Starr brings this exotic period alive with his knowledge of medieval culture, medicine and vocabulary. Every turn of phrase feels authentic. Every character feels appropriate within his or her rank in life. The glossary of medieval terms is helpful and fun to read.A delightful series!
