Author Biography
Priscilla Royal grew up in British Columbia and earned a B.A. in World Literature at San Francisco State University, where she discovered the beauty of medieval literature. She is a theater fan as well as a reader of history, mystery, and fiction of lesser violence. When not hiding in the thirteenth century, she lives in Northern California and is a member of California Writers Club, Mystery Writers of America, and Sisters in Crime.
Reviews"Royal matches a clever story line with intelligent characterizations, while providing a disturbing look at anti-Semitism in 13th-century England." - Publishers Weekly "This twelfth in the series will appeal to fans of Ellis Peters and Peter Tremayne." - Karen Muller, Booklist
