The Killer of Pilgrims

The Sixteenth Chronicle of Matthew Bartholomew

By: Susanna Gregory

Narrated by: David Thorpe

When a wealthy benefactor is found dead in Michaelhouse, Brother Michael and Matthew Bartholomew must find the culprit before the college is accused of foul play. At the same time, Cambridge is plagued by a mystery thief who is targeting rich pilgrims. Moreover, pranksters are at large in the university, staging a series of practical jokes that are growing increasingly dangerous and that are dividing scholars into bitterly opposed factions.

Bartholomew and Michael soon learn that their various mysteries are connected, and it becomes a race against time to catch the killer-thief before the university explodes into a violent conflict that could destroy it forever.

Involved

There was a lot going on in this latest installment. Rivalries, murder, intrigue all meet up and take you on an adventure! Love the humor thrown in and narrative excellent!

PERFECT FUN

I hope Susanna Gregory has bunches more of these characters and stories. Once again this story gives humor, action and mystery. David Thorpe is the only Michael and Matthew I want to hear.

Funny and entertaining

There’s one thing Susanna Gregory has over the fabulous C.J. Sansom: humor. The stories are not humorous and the Cambridge living conditions pretty horrendous. But the characters and their foibles are laugh-out-loud funny. David Thorpe’s performance is just about flawless. I always know which character is speaking. I give this whole series five stars.
