A Simon and Elizabeth Mystery
by Peg Herring
Elizabeth Tudor is as appalled as everyone else when headless corpses litter the streets of London, but when one of her own ladies is murdered, she vows to stop the killer. Her new friend Simon Maldon wants to help, and they join with a sergeant of the King's Welsh Guard to investigate. Is the killer Elizabeth's castellan? A creepy cleric who manages her household accounts? A madman captured on the grounds?
