Mistress of the Art of Death is the first in a series of medieval historical mysteries by the late Ariana Franklin.
This book has an unusual heroine. Her name is Adelia Aguilar and she is a trained doctor, very rare in the year 1171. Adelia is from Salerno, where women are allowed to attend medical school. Her speciality, however, is as a 'doctor of the dead' - in other words, she is skilled in performing autopsies and finding out the causes of death. When several young children go missing in Cambridge and the city's Jews are blamed for the disappearances, Adelia is sent to England to investigate.

This really looks like the type of book I would enjoy. Thanks for sending it to me, ReetPetite!
I really enjoyed this book and look forward to getting my hands on the second one of this series. It is a basic and gruesome medieval murder detective, and it was exactly what I wanted. Exciting until the very last minute when Henry makes his appearance. Thanks for sending it my way ReetPetite. It will be travelling, by way of the Wishlist Tag Game, to motherof11.
