Season Of The Raven (A Servant Of The Crown Mystery Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
Do you think I'd let him go back to the mill when I knew that ass meant to have at him? Not in my lifetime!" Susanna the Alewife's voice was so deep she could have been mistaken for a man. She looked like a soldier, standing with her shoulders thrown back and her hands braced on her hips. A massive woman, she was taller than Faucon and as wide as she was tall. The sleeves of her dark green gown were rolled as far up her forearms as their meaty girth allowed. A pair of dark red braids streamed out from beneath the simple white cap she wore. She looked skyward and shouted, "I'm warning you now, Lord. If You don't send Halbert Miller straight to hell, You and I are going to have words when I make my way to Your holy gates." Her rooster took umbrage to the shout and crowed from its perch atop her roof. From the cottage across the lane, a babe squalled as if the alewife's cry had startled it. Offering a final scornful sniff at what she perceived as Faucon's foolish question, Susanna pivoted.
