Mystery Historical

Girona, Spain, 1354. His Excellency the Bishop Berenguer has been summoned to Tarragona to attend a Bishop's Council. Complaining of illness and out of favor with both the King of Aragon and the Archbishop of Tarragona, His Excellency is reluctant to the make the journey and insists his personal physician accompany him. Isaac also dreads the long trip since his wife is along to try a bit of matchmaking for his most reluctant daughter. But their troubles have only just begun. Messengers from the Pope keep turning up dead--and Isaac finds himself embroiled in court intrigue and murder on the road to Tarragona.
