"The Death of a King" is not part of the Hugh Corbett series and indeed predates the first Corbett novel. It is an utterly enjoyable, stand alone historical mystery account of the murder of King Edward II in 1327. Or so you thought! Was he murdered? Who's buried in Edward II's tomb? A short and engaging work that will send you to your history books.
Anyone interested in English medieval murder and mystery will enjoy this series of Hugh Corbett, master clerk and spy for King Edward III.
Written in the vein of his Brother Anselem series which really need to be read in sequence to follow the lives and years of their exploits.
All stories are different so makes for avid reading.
