โฆ Synopsis
New OCR from a cbz. Formatted, proofed, v. 1.5.
The Old Angel is everything an old English inn should be, with ancient beams, gleaming copper bedwarmers, pewter tankards, and platters heaped high with red roast beef. But then, as Mr. Pinkerton quickly discovers, the Old Angel also harbors some less homey items. Such as a frightened young girl, a series of secret passageways -- and a most unpleasant Knight who is suddenly killed in a most unsavory way. The next thing he knows. Mr. Pinkerton is mixed up in a mystery that threatens not only his honor -- but his life!
