Death in Capelburgh

There may be official peace between Scotland and England, but lawlessness still reigns in the Debatable Lands along the border. As Lord of Capelburgh, George Crandall finds himself reluctantly drawn into executing judgement on robbers, fraudsters, and noble murderers. In the midst of it all he can't resist planting the idea for an epic poem in the mind of a talented author, the young Geoffrey Shoemaker. Alas, his successes bring him to the attention of authority and George and his son Ranulf are summoned to take part in King Edward's wars.
