The King's Hounds by Martin Jensen

14Nov. Kindle.

Yet another period in ancient history to become the setting for a series of murder mysteries. King Cnut and Angles and Saxons and what all. The detective team consists of a wandering ex-monk who peddles the art of illumination which he learned in the monastery and a young ex-nobleman whose father chose the wrong side. Good fun.

Jensen actually wrote this in Danish. I have learned to be wary of translations, but this is excellent.
