Her Highness' First Murder
by Peg Herring
King Henry VIII is concerned when the second beheaded young woman is found in London dressed in a nun's habit. When a nobleman's daughter and a Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Elizabeth are found in the same condition the investigation turns serious. Hugh Bellows of the King's Guard enlist the help of Simon Maldon, the son of an ex-Royal Physician. Princess Elizabeth also takes an interest in the case. Each of the three partners uses different methods to gather information about the grizzly deaths. Are the deaths the work of a madman or a plot against the King? Good historical detail of the period and interesting psychological insight into the future Queen Elizabeth. This will be a series to read and enjoy!
