About this audiobook
“Superb...an appropriate homage”—Marilyn Stasio, New
York Times
The much-anticipated final installment in Ariana
Franklin’s popular Mistress of the Art of Death historical mystery series,
finished by the author’s daughter after her death.
England. 1191. After the death of her friend and patron,
King Henry II, Adelia Aguilar, England’s vaunted Mistress of the Art of Death,
is living comfortably in retirement and training her daughter, Allie, to carry
on her craft—sharing the practical knowledge of anatomy, forensics, and
sleuthing that catches murderers. Allie is already a skilled healer, with a
particular gift for treating animals. But the young woman is nearly twenty, and
her father, Rowley, Bishop of Saint Albans, and his patron, the formidable
Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine, have plans to marry Allie to an influential husband
. . . if they can find a man who will appreciate a woman with such unusual
gifts.
When a friend in Cambridgeshire falls ill, Allie is sent to
Ely, where her path will cross with Lord Peverill, a young aristocrat who would
be a most suitable match for the young healer. But when Allie arrives, all is
chaos. A village girl has disappeared—and she’s not the first. Over the past
few months, several girls from the villages surrounding Ely have vanished. When
the body of one of the missing is discovered, Allie manages to examine the
remains before burial. The results lead her to suspect that a monstrous
predator is on the loose. Will her training and her stubborn pursuit of the truth
help her find the killer...or make her the next victim?
A richly detailed, twisty thriller, Death and the Maiden
is historical mystery at its finest—and a superb final episode in Ariana
Franklin’s much-loved, much-acclaimed series.
