The Summer of the Danes by Ellis Peters
3.0
Interesting for its historical background, but the mystery is not as good as in previous books. I'll have to re-read it to see if the first murder is every solved, but I didn't catch the solution the first time around. It may be that [a:Ellis Peters|4046|Ellis Peters|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1242605103p2/4046.jpg] forgot she's put it in.
But it is interesting to know that Danes still had a kingdom in Dublin as late as the 12th century, and descriptions of their way of life as a force invading Wales are interesting, and there's something about an independent Wales that's nostalgic and attractive. Not that I'm odl enough to have experienced it, but this story does make those times more interesting to travel to.
