In 1360, the Great Bridge over the River Cam is close to collapse. To repair it will cost the town and the University dear, especially if its rotten wood is replaced by more durable stone. As arguments rage over raising the money other, equally heated, differences are coming to the boil over the election of a new chancellor. While the majority support Brother Michael for the post, at least one of his opponents aims to seize it by fair means or foul. Then the discovery of a body under the bridge and the disappearance of two scholars throws a more sinister shadow over both disputes.

harles II is well established at White Hall Palace, his mistress at hand in rooms over the Holbein bridge, the heads of some of the regicides on public display. London seethes with new energy, freed from the strictures of the protectorate, but many of its inhabitants have lost their livelihoods. One is Thomas Chaloner, a reluctant spy for the feared secretary of state, John Thurloe, and now returned from Holland in desperate need of employment.

January, 1145. Godfrey Bowyer, the best but least likeable bow maker in Worcester, dies an agonising death by poisoning. Although similarly struck down after the same meal, his wife, Blanche, survives. The number of people who could have administered the poison should mean a very short investigation for the sheriff’s men, Hugh Bradecote, Serjeant Catchpoll and Underserjeant Walkelin, but perhaps someone was pulling the strings, and that widens the net considerably.

Story4 out of 5 stars 16
In the sapping summer heat of 1665, there is little celebration in London of the naval victory at the Battle of Lowestoft. The King, his retinue and anyone with sufficient means has fled the plague-ridden city, its half-deserted streets echoing the sound of bells tolling the mounting number of deaths. Those who remain clutch doubtful potions to ward off the relentless disease and dart nervously past shuttered buildings, watchful for the thieves who risk their lives to plunder what has been left behind.

Hugh of Singleton, fourth son of a minor knight, has been educated as a clerk, usually a prelude to taking holy orders. However, feeling no certain calling despite a lively faith, he turns to the profession of surgeon, training in Paris and then hanging out his sign in Oxford. A local lord asks him to track the killer of a young woman whose bones have been found in the castle cesspit. She is identified as the impetuous missing daughter of a local blacksmith, and her young man, whom she had provoked very publicly, is in due course arrested and sentenced at the Oxford assizes.

The plague raging through London in 1665 has emptied the city. The only people left are those too poor to flee or those who selflessly struggle to control the contagion and safeguard the capital's future. Amongst them, though, are those prepared to risk their health for money - those who sell dubious 'cures' and hawk food at wildly inflated prices. Also amongst them are those who hold in their hands the future of the city's most iconic building - St Paul's Cathedral.

London, September 1666. The Great Fire rages through the city, consuming everything in its path. Even the impregnable cathedral of St. Paul's is engulfed in flames and reduced to ruins. Among the crowds watching its destruction is James Marwood, son of a disgraced printer and reluctant government informer. In the aftermath of the fire, a semi-mummified body is discovered in the ashes of St. Paul's, in a tomb that should have been empty. The man's body has been mutilated, and his thumbs have been tied behind his back.

Publisher's Summary
The 24th chronicle of Matthew Bartholomew.
In 1360 Edward III issues a call to arms, as sporadic attacks by the French threaten to turn into a full-blown invasion. In Cambridge, fear of the enemy is magnified by the belief that foreign agents are lurking in the area. Tension runs ever higher as rumours and ignorance fan the flames of suspicion amid preparations for war.
And then the first murder occurs - of a French scholar living in the town.
At Michaelhouse, Brother Michael is now Master, but his reach of power in the University is under threat by the election of a new Chancellor and his cohort of dubious advisors. Soon, the Colleges begin to squabble amongst themselves, as well as with the town that never wanted a University in the first place.
Amidst this atmosphere of swelling distrust, physician Matthew Bartholomew is called upon to investigate mysterious deaths in a nearby hospital. He quickly realises that there is something odd about the inmates and their keepers - something dark and deadly, which seems to be connected to the growing number of murders in the town. Pressure mounts as the University and the town clamour for answers, leading Bartholomew and Michael in a frantic quest for a solution before the powder-keg of animosity in Cambridge is ignited.

The best yet
I have read all of the Matthew Bartholomew books, truly brought to life by the characterisation of the narrator David Thorpe, and have enjoyed them all. This book however has been the best and sadly from the feel of the ending may well be the last :(
If you enjoy mediaeval mysteries with a light-hearted touch and a wealth of likeable characters as well as murderers and villains then read these books. The historical perspective at the end of each one is also interesting.
Thank you Susanna Gregory and David Thorpe for making many long flights much less tedious and boring!!!

Enjoyable enough
I'm a long time fan of the Matthew Bartholomew audiobooks - not because of the quality of the literature but because they are easy listens and offer unchallenging enjoyable escapism. I fell asleep listening this this book, woke up 8 hours later, carried on listening later on in the day without twigging that I had missed most of the book! Listening to it again I didn't miss all that much. Susanna Gregory has killed off so many of the fun characters in previous books that there's almost no one left to add texture and continuity to the stories other than Matthew, Michael and Cynric. Sadly it feels like the series is coming to the end of its life.

Didn't let us down.
This series of books was the first series I listened to on Audbile and it soon became a family thing that we listened to the the antics of Michael and Bartholomew together. Finishing the series nearly 2 years ago we were excited to see a new book had been added to the series. We weren't disappointed it was like listening to old friends and the antics they got up. Looking forward to the next one.

Brilliant read, love all the books in the series and this had not disappointed either and can’t wait for an another to come out! Narration by David Thorpe is fantastic , he is brilliant in changing his voice for different characters and makes the book stand out like no other- wish he narrated all audio books- he brings it to life!

Good but lacking something
I’ve listened to all the Bartholomew books, this was good but not one of the best. We’ve been waiting many books for him to marry Matilda and yet again, she’s missing from the books, along with many of the other much loved characters like Agnes, Langerly. Feels like a last in the series book, but hopefully not and we might get a proper happy ending after 20 something books 😀

Another Brilliant Matthew Bartholomew Book
Sheer brilliance as usual. My only complaint is that I got very little sleep for a few days as I simply could not bear to switch it off! I really hope there will be yet more Matthew Bartholomew books to come. Historical Fiction at its very best.

Awful
When looking for a CJ Samson alternative, I thought I'd give this a try.....I think I managed 45 minutes (over 3 trys) before I had to turn it off. The story might be ok, once you get into it, but the narrator is awful. The pace of the speech is so incredibly slow that your heartbeat subconciously starts to race as you try and urge him on and his character voices are unbelieveably bad....I've no idea why the general reviews seem to be so good ?..this really is the worst audio book I have ever listended to....PS: if anyone can recommend a good CJ Sansom (Shardlake style) alternative, I've love to hear from you...many thanks

Too formulaic
It seems that her books are becoming more formulaic. Always the same issues, always with unbelievably twisted characters- all of whom act in such a way as to appear totally devoid of intelligence. I enjoyed her earlier books, but resent that she appears to roll out the same old stuff with each new book🤨
