Lost Innocents (A Servant Of The Crown Mystery Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
They'd been delayed while he waited to meet with the former sub-abbot. It had been well after Prime when the anchorite at last sent a reply through a novice, saying he was too ill this day to entertain a conversation. With geese and swans flocking noisily overhead, departing for the season, Edmund rode from the abbey ahead of Faucon. Faucon let the monk precede him only because he knew they wouldn't encounter the sheriff or his men on this day, nor any day before Faucon's return to Blacklea. Sir Alain had made his point. Their confrontation would wait until Oswald was far from Warwickshire's borders. Against that, Faucon had stored his metal armor and his surcoat in his saddle bags in favor of his more comfortable underarmor, with his sword belted over his padded gambeson. Under the drawbridge the flowing water sparkled in mid-morning's cold clear light as he crossed, leading a workhorse. It had been donated to the monks by the son of the abbey's patron, the lord of Kinwarton.
