The Deadliest Sin by Jeri Westerson
London 1399 - At the Boar's Head tavern, where they are relaxing over a mug of ale and catching up on the political gossip, Crispin Guest and Jack Tucker are summoned to a London priory. Two nuns have been murdered in a manner that suggest the Seven Deadly Sins. Meanwhile, Crispin's old friend Henry Bolingbroke, now Duke of Lancaster, has returned to England to overthrow his cousin Richard II and take the throne. Will Crispin back the king or will he join Duke Henry's forces and commit treason - again?
This is the last of the Crispin Guest books, and I'm so sad. Westerson does wind in the threads of Crispin's story in a good way. Hopefully the author will have a new series for Crispin's fans - maybe Jack will become the Tracker 2.0?
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eARC.
Coronation of Henry IV (I don't know which one is Crispin)
