A Moorland Hanging

A medieval murder mystery in the Knights Templar series. Cold-blooded murder turns Simon Puttock's official duty into something worse, and he needs his friend Sir Baldwin Furnshill, a former Templar, to draw out the culprit. Their search exposes extortion, corruption and rule by fear.

The plot draws on the Stannaries: in the medieval period the Crown owned the tin-mining on Dartmoor and gave miners wide rights, which the author used as the starting point for the story.
