About this listen

At the May Day dancing at Glasgow Cross, Gil Cunningham sees not only the woman who is going to be murdered, but her murderer as well. Gil is a recently qualified lawyer whose family still expect him to enter the priesthood. When he finds the body of a young woman in the new building at Glasgow Cathedral he is asked to investigate, and identifies the corpse as the runaway wife of cruel, unpleasant nobleman John Semphill. With the help of Maistre Pierre, the French master-mason, Gil must ask questions and seek a murderer in the heart of the city.

Have this series in hard copy but thought to try this audible version. An engaging cast of characters given good expression by excellent narration. Enjoyed immensely the details of 15th century Scotland as Gil strives to resolve his conflicted feelings between possible priesthood and desire for wife and family, and, aided by the clever Alys and her father, to conclude his quest for justice.

An engaging and enjoyable book.
