Book rec: Ariana Franklin
This is a series about a woman trained, around the time of Henry II, to perform autopsies. The result is involvement in a series of mysteries. I've just read the second one, the Serpent's Tale, and it's great. Well-written - my immediate reaction to this kind of quality historical fiction is to want to learn more about the actual history. When this happens in a period of history I usually want to ignore, then the writing must be good.
