Publisher's summary

Marlborough Hall, 1154. According to British lore, this ancient palace once hosted a torrid love affair between young King Henry II and a teenaged Rosamund, right under the patrician nose of his wife, Eleanor of Aquitaine. To keep his mistress safe from his scorned wife, Henry built Rosamund a house once could only reach by labyrinth—and only then with a spool of thread. But his titanic efforts proved futile when he found the girl poisoned to death—and along with his only love died the secret of the killer's identity...

Mystery Maven

Well this entry was quite a zinger. Well written, fast moving puzzle, with excellent narration for all the characters. Now the setting and certain characters dipped into an interesting period of history but well played on the grittier side of their existence.

Highly recommend and onto the next entry.
