โฆ Synopsis
"Sisters! Come back! Please don't leave us yet!"
Cisily Fisher has died in childbirth and now the village of Priors Byfield is held in a grip of fear. Can Dame Frevisse find the root of misery behind a murderer's sin before the next lethal blow falls? Or will be the village be lost in a hue and cry of terror? The gentling touch of the midwife may calm the tortured soul... or give birth to a bitter death.
(The Midwife's Tale is part of the Margaret Frazer's Tales series.)
