When William of Wykeman, bishop of Winchester, fears reprisal after being blamed for the death of a local knight by his irate family, Owen Archer (A Spy for the Redeemer) must protect him. In the meantime, Owen copes with wife Lucie's overwhelming sorrow upon losing the child she was carrying. A nice addition to the series, with Robb's good character development and domestic detail, though the ending doesn't quite satisfy. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
