(2026)(The second book in the Margaret of Scotland Medieval Mystery series)
A novel by J G Lewis
A Margaret of Scotland Medieval Mystery
Newly crowned Margaret knows exile, estrangement and terror all too well. When William the Conqueror invaded England in 1066, Margaret and her family fled to Scotland, where she was hurriedly wed to Malcolm, King of the Scots. She’d craved the quiet life of a nun but now finds herself thrust into the public sphere with a duty to save souls—and lives—in the turbulent aftermath of the Norman conquest.
Book 2: The Raven’s Price
A horse trader swears that a young English nobleman—long thought dead—is being held in slavery by the Lord of the Isles. A letter to the powerful chieftain bring an invitation to visit and a surprise proposal of marriage for Margaret's sister Christina. Their journey to his remote fiefdom leads them into a web of murder and danger.
When a young woman is found dead, Margaret suspects that the powerful chieftain has killed her to clear the way for his marriage to Christina. King Malcolm wants the alliance to secure the peace between their two realms, but agrees to end the marriage contract if Margaret can prove that her sister’s betrothed is a cold-blooded killer. Can Margaret solve the mystery before an ill-starred wedding takes place?
